Spaghetti Squash

Spaghetti Squash is a summer squash that, when cooked, shreds into strings like spaghetti.  It is a great substitute for pasta for low carb diets.  It can be used as a side dish or as an entree topped with your favorite sauce.

Ingredients:

1 Spaghetti Squash
water

Here's how:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Cut the squash in half lengthwise (start at the stem end.)


Remove the seeds from both halves.

Place the pan on a sheet pan and add water to the pan up to a half inch.

Place the squash face down on the pan, making sure there is water under the squash.

Put the pan in the oven for one hour.

Remove the pan from the oven and use a fork to shred the inside of the squash.


Remove the squash from the shell and place in a bowl.

Top with butter, salt and pepper to serve as a side dish or top with your favorite sauce (such as Bolognese) to serve as an entree.
