Baked Whole Spaghetti Squash

Ingredients

  • 1 spaghetti squash (medium)

  • Pepper, ground (to taste)

Instructions

    1: Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking pan with foil, parchment paper or a silicone mat.
    2: Pierce the spaghetti squash a few times on all sides.
    3: Place the squash on the baking pan.
    4: Bake 35 to 45 minutes or until the skin pierces easily with a knife. Turn the squash over halfway into the cooking time.
    5: Remove the squash and let it cool a bit.
    6: Cut the ends off (not too much).
    7: Cut the squash in half and scoop out the seeds

Notes

Top the cooked Spaghetti Squash with your favorite pasta sauce and Parmesan cheese if desired.
A grapefruit spoon works well to scoop out the seeds.
I like Kosher salt the best.

Bake a Whole Spaghetti Squash in the oven and cut it afterwards. This is the easiest method to cut and cook a Spaghetti Squash. Cutting a raw Spaghetti Squash is very difficult. It is much easier to cook the squash first, and cut it after when it is soft.

Baking a whole Spaghetti Squash is healthy and easy to cook. Top the “spaghetti” with a variety of toppings like pasta sauce and Parmesan cheese, or simply with salt and pepper. So many possibilities! In this cooking video Karen Breyer will show you step-by-step how to make Baked Whole Spaghetti Squash. Try this Baked Whole Spaghetti Squash recipe and serve it for dinner tonight!
