First things first: cut it in half lengthwise. Then, scoop out the seeds.
Next, drizzle the insides lightly with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. I find that adding too much oil and too much salt at this stage makes the squash a bit watery, sánh a light drizzle and a light sprinkle will bởi.
Then, poke a few holes in the skin of the squash with a fork and place it cut side down on a baking sheet. Pop it in a pre-heated 400°F oven.

A mistake I used to tát make was roasting my squash too long. I used to tát roast it for an hour or longer, but now I roast it for 30 to tát 40 minutes. I initially thought the squash needed to tát be super soft and fork tender in order for the strands to tát “spaghetti,” but over the years I’ve learned that I prefer my strands to tát be more al dente (and less mushy), and that the 1 hour mark was too long. Of course, the timing will entirely depend on the size of your squash and the heat of your particular oven. It can also vary from squash to tát squash, sánh adjust your cooking time accordingly.
Once it’s roasted and cool enough to tát touch, use a fork to tát scrape the strands. I lượt thích to tát start from the outside and work my way in, fluffing them up as I go.
That’s it! Season it with more salt and pepper and serve it as a simple veggie side. Or incorporate it into your favorite spaghetti squash recipes. Here are two of mine (pictured below): Spaghetti Squash with Chickpeas and Kale and Lemon Pesto Spaghetti Squash.
