ROASTED SPAGHETTI SQUASH

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Brush both sides of the squash with olive oil, sprinkle with salt, and place cut-side up in a baking pan. Cover tightly with aluminum foil.
• Roast in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Uncover and continue to roast until tender, about 35 minutes more. Let cool slightly, about 5 minutes. Use a fork to scrape the squash flesh into a large bowl and toss with Parmesan cheese.

BAKED SPAGHETTI SQUASH

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 450 degrees. Brush the cut side of each squash half with 1 tablespoon olive oil, then season with salt and pepper. Place squash, cut-sides down, on a parchment-lined baking sheet and roast until the squash is tender when poked with a fork, 35 to 40 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, stir together the Parmesan, panko, garlic, thyme and the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.
• Flip the squash and use a fork to scrape the squash into spaghetti strands. Stir in half the mozzarella, if using, then sprinkle the squash with the remaining mozzarella and the panko mixture. Roast until the top is golden brown and mozzarella has melted, 20 to 25 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400ºF (200ºC).
• With a sharp knife, slice the squash in half. If the squash is too tough, puncture in several places forming a dotted line around the squash. Microwave for 3-5 minutes to soften. Allow to cool before cutting in half.
• Scoop out the seeds, brush with oil, and sprinkle with salt, and pepper. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a fork can easily pierce the skin.
• In a pan over medium heat, add the oil, garlic, and onions, and sautè until onions are translucent.
• Add the cherry tomatoes, salt, and pepper and simmer until they are cooked and begin to become softened.
• Remove squash from the oven, with a fork pull at the edges to produce that stringy "spaghetti" quality. Add the squash to the tomato mixture and mix in the pan.
• Add mixture back to the hollowed out spaghetti squash halves. Top with mini mozzarella balls ans basil.
• Bake an additional 5-10 minutes, or until cheese melts.
• Serve in the squash, and top with basil.
• Enjoy!
