Roasted Spaghetti Squash

Roasted Spaghetti Squash

This roasted spaghetti squash couldn’t be easier to make and it’s such a versatile fall vegetable. You can serve this roasted squash as a simple side dish as is, use it in place of pasta with a tasty marinara sauce, do a quick saute with other veggies, or my favorite way–plain with lots of butter! Roasting is my favorite way of cooking squash in the fall and winter because it’s so simple to do and makes the house smell wonderful.

How to Make Roasted Spaghetti Squash

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.

Carefully cut the spaghetti squash in half lengthwise with a large knife. Scoop out & discard the seeds of each half with a spoon.

Place the cleaned squash on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil then rub the inside and outer rim of each squash half to evenly coat with oil. Season with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste.
