Marinara Spaghetti Squash

Some days, I am in the mood for something very simple to eat. The hardest part about this spaghetti squash recipe is cutting open the spaghetti squash! It took me like 10 minutes to cut the thing open. Any tips?? After that, it was smooth sailing. Just rub some olive oil on the cut squash, sprinkle a little salt, and roast them “face down” on a baking pan in the oven for about 25 to 30 minutes. Once they start browning, you know they are done.

If you have never made spaghetti squash before, it is really easy and fun to scrape the “noodles” out of the squash. Once they are cooked, gently scrape the sides with a fork and you will see noodles appear before your eyes. It is like magic!

My favorite topping for spaghetti squash noodles is marinara sauce and Parmesan cheese. How do you like to eat spaghetti squash?

Enjoy this simple roasted spaghetti squash recipe!
