Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 spaghetti squash
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1 cup diced cucumbers
1 cup sliced carrot
1 cup diced bell pepper
½ cup chopped green onions
½ cup diced onion
½ cup roasted peanut
¼ cup fresh cilantro, chopped
¼ cup warm water
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon sesame oil
2 tablespoons honey, or agave
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon sriracha
½ cup creamy peanut butter
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, peeled and minced
1 tablespoon garlic, minced

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.
  • Meanwhile, make the peanut sauce: combine the water, soy sauce, sesame oil, honey, lime juice, Sriracha, peanut butter, ginger, and garlic in a liquid measuring cup or medium bowl, stirring to combine.
  • Remove the squash from the oven and, with a fork, pull at the edges to produce that stringy "spaghetti" quality.
  • In a large bowl combine the "spaghetti" with the cucumber, carrots, bell pepper, green onion, onions, peanuts, cilantro, and the sauce. Add mixture back to the hollowed out spaghetti squash halves.
  • Enjoy!
