How to bake a Spaghetti Squash
Have you ever had spaghetti squash? It is a bazaar vegetable, but rather good. You can boil them, bake them or even microwave them… But when I was about 15 my Mom was cooking one in the microwave for dinner, she had cut it in two. But some how it sealed back together and next thing we knew it EXPLODED, blowing the microwave door open and strands of spaghetti squash all over the kitchen. Scared us to death but we still laugh about it…… SO needless today I am a bit freaked out by the thought of popping one of these into the microwave. Instead I choose to bake mine.
First you will need to find a VERY SHARP and HEAVY duty knife of cleaver. They are very hard to cut open. I have found the easiest way is to make small jabs all the way around. Then go back around again, going a little deeper, then crack it open.
You will then need to scrap out the seeds and fibers in the middle, I do it with a spoon.
I like it plain with butter, and salt and pepper.
Or you can eat with red sauce and meat balls .
Fall is a great time to try these, as you can pick them up at a rather thrifty price since they are in season.
Have you tired them, and what is your favorite way to eat them?
Bobby Dickenson wanna try this one?

Max Perez this is what I gave you
Yes! After the first time I got so use to it, it tasted weird to eat regular spaghetti U0001f602.
I never had issues cutting it. I always baked, never tried in the microwave though.
Have them cut it at the store. Its too dangerous to cut at home. Walmart is the only store I’ve ever had tell me they can’t cut it for me…against their rules.
Yes.. it is a really good substitute
This guy is going to cut a finger tip that way. U0001f601
If you put it upside down you don’t need to use the foil to cover.
Sounds yummy! 🙂
Oh my goodness I made this the other day with a cauliflower garlic cream sauce(almost like an Alfredo) that I found on Pinterest! It was amazing!!!!
