Spaghetti squash is a fun alternative to traditional pasta dishes. You can add any of your favorite meat or vegetarian pasta sauces! To make this recipe even easier, you can cook the squash whole! Use a sharp paring knife to pierce the skin a few times all around, bake at 375F for about 60 minutes or you can microwave it for 10-15 minute (Just be sure to remove the seeds before eating!)
