Chatelaine Triple Tested

Here's a triple-tested way to cook spaghetti squash. Roasted spaghetti squash is a perfect veggie-alternative to pasta, and it's so simple to prepare! Simply bake the squash whole and then shred.

Ingredients

  • 1 large spaghetti squash

  • 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil, or melted butter, divided

  • 1/2 tsp salt

  • Pinch of pepper

Instructions

  • PREHEAT oven to 375F, then line a baking sheet with parchment.

  • CUT ends off squash and discard. Halve lengthwise, then scoop out seeds and stringy strands. Brush inside of squash with 1 tbsp oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper, then place, cut-side down, on prepared sheet.

  • ROAST until a fork is easily inserted in centre, 40 to 45 min. Flip squash and cool about 15 min.

  • SHRED squash into long strands using a spoon or fork and transfer to a bowl. Toss with remaining 1 tbsp oil. Serve spaghetti squash warm with toppings such as chopped fresh herbs or toasted panko.
