Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 spaghetti squash 2 to 3 pounds, medium
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • salt kosher salt and freshly cracked
  • black pepper kosher salt and freshly cracked
  • 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1 recipe Basil Vinaigrette
  • Parmesan Cheese shaved
  • pine nuts toasted

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F
  2. Slice the squash in half: Use a chef's knife to cut the spaghetti squash lengthwise from stem to tail. Scoop out the seeds. Place the squash on a roasting pan, cut side up and drizzle with olive oil, salt, pepper and red pepper flakes.
  3. Cook the squash for 45-50 minutes until fork tender.
  4. When done, the squash should be easily pierced a fork all the way through the skin. If it's still not tender, put the squash back in the oven for another 15 to 20 minutes.
  5. Using a fork, scrape out the spaghetti like strands of squash. Transfer the strands to a large bowl and serve with the basil vinaigrette on top along with shaved parmesan, salt, pepper and pine nuts.

Notes

  • If the vinaigrette isn't to your taste, simply use this method to roast the squash and use with your favorite pasta sauce.
