Instructions

For spaghetti squash:
    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F. 
  2. Cut your spaghetti squash into two halves.  If you have trouble cutting it, pierce it with a fork and microwave it for 3-5 minutes on high.  That’ll make it much easier to cut through. But, make sure to pierce it with a fork so that it doesn’t explode! 
  3. After cutting your spaghetti squash, remove the seeds and discard them. 
  4. Drizzle with olive oil and generously coat with salt and pepper. 
  5. Place them face down on a rimmed baking sheet, add a splash of water to the baking sheet, and cook for about 30-40 minutes or until the sides are easily pierced with a fork. 
  6. When the squash is tender and fully cooked remove it from the oven and set it aside.
For filling:
  1. In a bowl add all the filling ingredients and stir until combined.
  2. Fill the cavities of the spaghetti squash with the buffalo chicken mixture and return to the oven for ten minutes.
  3. Remove from the oven and gently pull the sides of the squash with a fork and mix the strands with the buffalo chicken filling.
  4. Top with desired toppings.
