    The easiest is to bake it upside down. at 375 for 40 minutes. I spray it with some olive oil then spice it up with oregano, lemon pepper and salt.

    Let it cool upside down then use a fork to shred it up.

    I like to use homemade pesto on it after that.

    I actually made this last night

    I made a sauce with about 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream, 2tbs butter and some feta cheese. I added garlic, pepper, basil, oragano, red pepper flakes, and cocktail shrimp.
    I then tossed the spaghetti squash in, and it was a HIT in our house. I was hoping to have leftovers for lunch, but we ate it all.

    I wanna cook it in my microwave like some people have mentioned to save time, but I'm so very afraid of blowing up the microwave.

    I tried warming up a hard boiled egg and just about crapped my pants because I exploded it. LOL.

    Just stab it through the shell with a big knife (like carving knife) 3 or 4 times in different spots and nuke - no problem, no explosion, lol

    Edit: Not the egg shell, the squash shell, :laugh:

    Bump! I tried Spaghetti Squash for the first time last week and I loved it! I just added some ground turkey meat sauce to it and ate it like spaghetti! These recipes sound good though. I must try!

    I love spaghetti squash..my favorite way to serve it is with a taco chicken slow cooker recipe I make...chicken, chopped peppers, shallot chopped, chili powder, low sodium taco seasoning, drained can no salt diced tomatoes...Let it cook on low for 8 hours and serve on top of baked spaghetti squash noodles

    I made spaghetti squash for the first time last month and was underwelmed. I think it was because I had heard so often that it was like pasta, so I think that was unfair to the squash. After reading all of these comments and recipes, I'm definitely going to give spaghetti squash another try!

    I made acorn squash for the first time a couple weeks ago, and that is one I won't be trying again. Yuck! :sick:

    I bake it, scoop it, and top it with homemade tomato sauce and turkey meatballs.
