How to Prepare Spaghetti Squash Pasta
🌡️ Preheat oven to 400F (200C). 🔪 Use a sharp knife to carefully halve your squash and then scoop out the seeds with a spoon. 🫒 Drizzle each half with olive oil and then sprinkle with salt and pepper. ♨️ Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper cut-side down. Prick the skin with a fork a few times. 🍅 Now, add your cherry tomatoes to a separate baking dish, and then sprinkle with a touch of salt, and drizzle with olive oil. 🧀 Place your cheese of choice in the middle of the tomatoes and then pop it in the oven along with your tray of spaghetti squash. ⏲️ Cook the squash and tomatoes for about 45 minutes. 🧑🍳 When the squash is cool enough to handle, use a fork to make your spaghetti strands by scooping out everything from inside the squash. 🌿 Stir the squash and sauce together, garnish with some basil and enjoy!
