Spaghetti Squash recipes?

I have a lot of cooked spaghetti squash and don't want to use it with spaghetti sauce. ANY QUICK RECIPE SUGGESTIONS?

Can't really think of anything other than what I use it for.........Spaghetti Squash Lasagna......you might be able to use an alfredo sauce instead of red sauce, or fattachini.

I've only ever had it with salsa. Your question caused me to pause and take a look. Let me know what you try.

Thank you!!!! Some of those recipes look great!!! The spaghetti squash is a life saver for me while trying to keep calories low.

I like the tofu angel hair pasta and broccoli slaw too. I get HungryGirl emails and loads of recipes. The key to the tofu noodles is to rinse them really well before cooking. Once cooked, if you dry off the noodles really well the sauce sticks to them. My personal preference is the angel hair type ...the texture is more agreeable to me. Only 40 calories for the entire bag and packed with nutrition! Kid friendly too!

Here is a great recipe for spaghetti squash


1 large spaghetti squash (3 lb./1.4 kg)
1/4 cup 100% Parmesan Light Grated Cheese
1/2 cup Part Skim Mozzarella Shredded Cheese
2 plum tomatoes, finely chopped
1/3 cup chopped fresh parsley
Make It!

PIERCE squash several times with fork or sharp knife to allow steam to escape. Microwave on HIGH 10 min. or just until squash is softened, turning after 5 min. Let stand 5 min.

CUT squash in half; remove and discard seeds. Use fork to scrape insides of squash to form strands; place in large bowl. Add remaining ingredients; toss lightly with fork. Spoon into 1 squash shell; discard remaining shell.

MICROWAVE 2 min. or until heated through.

Sometimes I like to take cooked spaghetti squash and saute it in a pan with some olive oil, 1 or 2 minced garlic cloves and 1 to 2 tsp minced ginger. Makes for a yummy side dish.

I cook what ever fresh veggies I have (carrots, onion, mushrooms, zuchinni), seasonings of choice (roasted garlic, italian seasoning, salt, pepper) with a little water to keep them from sticking then add two cans of dices tomatoes with garlic and onions. Serve over the top of cooked spagetti squash. This makes enough for a weeks worth of meals.

The pan "fried" spaghetti squash was yummy (i love crispy cheese, so yeah!!) i mixed 1/2 cup of spagheti squash with 1/4 cup of mexican blend (shredded) cheese and a splash of egg white (1/2 Tablespoon). mix. spoon in (pam sprayed) pan. flatten out..med high..about 3 minutes each side. 105 cals

This is my fave spaghetti squash recipe, I'm making it tomorrow night! It's Greek style, but I omit the olives because I don't like them. :sick:
