Simple Spaghetti Squash Parmesan image

This is a good basic way to serve this crunchy, mild favored squash. For variety, top with sesame seeds, mix with minced fresh basil, or combined with fresh chopped tomatoes. A 3 pound squash yields about 6 cups cooked squash.

Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 spaghetti squash
1 tablespoon unsalted butter (or more!)
1 tablespoon fresh grated parmesan cheese, not that sawdust in a green can
1/2 teaspoon salt
fresh ground pepper

Steps:

  • The squash can be baked, microwaved or boiled. I choose to microwave. Place squash cut side down in a pan just large enough to hold an 1/4 cup water and cover with plastic wrap.
  • Microwave on high for 14-15 minutes.
  • When skin pierces easily with fork, drain and cool. Scoop out and discard the seeds.
  • With a fork, transfer the spaghetti-like strands from the shell to a casserole dish.
  • Stir in the remaining ingredients.
  • Taste to adjust seasoning.
