    I had something similar to Creamy Mushroom listed above tonight.

    I fried up some chicken (bite size) and mushrooms (bite size), then added a can of mushroom soup (campbells), and the spaghetti squash... SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Good!!!!!!!!! My fave so far! My fiance put it up there with his fave!

    I also added salt, pepper and parmesan cheese.

    Can anyone recommend a good way to cut spaghetti squash in half (lengthwise)? I attempted to do it with a chef's night tonight, and it literally took 20 minutes and was rather scary. Wrong knife?

    That's a really good question!!! I just went and bought a new knife because I was having such a hard time. Let me tell you this knife is not any better... it always takes a while to get through the spaghetti squash!!! I would love to know what kind of knife that I should invest in, because I struggle with that as well. Sometimes it's all crooked and everything!
  • I have a spaghetti squash in the fridge i plan on cooking tomorrow for supper, great recipes! I cant wait to try them! :)

    For all you Spaghetti Squash lovers. I found out that if you use those special knives to cut a pumpkin, you will be able to cut the squash no probs! Just had to share :-)

    I read someplace about doing spaghetti squash in the microwave while it is whole. Take a knife and punch 3 or 4 wholes in the squash. Put on microwave safe plate and nuke for 6 minutes, turn over and cook 6 more minutes. Will be hot. Let sit for 5 - 10 minutes. Squash will be soft, then you can cut it in half, carefully, will be hot. Scoop out seeds and voila you can easily fork out the spaghetti.

    I recently discovered spaghetti squash too and I will eat the crap out of it. I bake it at 350 for an hour and then scrape the insides out.

    The way I eat them: I put like about a cup in a bowl, load it with butter, parsley, and garlic salt and then nuke it until the butter is all melted. I LOVE it that way.

    I've frozen it before too, but it seems to get a little mushy and more watery after it thaws.
  • This is soo good, spaghetti squash lasagna. I made it so much I got sick of it. My boyfriend loves it too.

    I put spaghetti sauce on it as well. However, I made a side dish with it once but just adding a can of cream of mushroom soup to the cooked squash and mixed and served. It was yummy and eveyone loved it.
