    Wrap it in foil and bake it for 1/2 hour first before cutting. Take it out, hold it with a kitchen towel and cut to remove seeds.
    Brush with olive oil, salt and pepper to taste and Put it back to finish. About 30-45 min. Depending on how large.

    My best friends grandmother makes the best (literally, THE BEST) spaghetti squash simply by adding pesto and pineapple meatballs (found at Costco). SO YUMMY.

    I just made this tonight and it was yummy. My husband said it rivaled the restaurant version:

    Spaghetti squash pad thai

    I used almond butter instead of peanut and measured about 860 grams of cooked squash for the dish.

    I've always wondered if you could just boil it whole...

    Lol you can...I did this the first time I cooked it.

    Some great recipes I'll have to try in here!

    I tried a few nights ago and gave up on cutting it until I did more research. With these suggestions, I think I'll try again. I really need a low-carb alternative to pasta!

    My family loves it fixed baked potato style. A little pat of butter, plain Greek yogurt, bacon bits, and salt and pepper. It's delicious.
