HERBED SPAGHETTI SQUASH

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Using a sharp knife, cut the squash in half lengthwise and place, cut side down, in a baking dish. Add enough water to come 1/2-inch up the sides of the baking dish and cover with aluminum foil. Bake for 45 minutes, until the squash is easily pierced with a paring knife. Turn squash over and cover with foil again and continue to cook another 15 minutes, until the squash is very tender. Remove from the oven, uncover, and allow to cool slightly. Using a spoon, remove the seeds and discard. Using a fork, gently pull the strands of squash away from the peel and place the squash strands into a mixing bowl.
• Heat a skillet. Add the butter, spaghetti squash, herbs, salt and pepper and toss thoroughly but gently to heat and combine. Serve immediately or cover and keep warm until ready to serve.

SPAGHETTI SQUASH RECIPE WITH ROASTED VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425F. Line a large pan with parchment or with foil sprayed with oil.
• PREPARE SPAGHETTI SQUASH: Cut off 1/2 inch on one end. Stand up squash on flat end. Cut in half lengthwise. ALTERNATIVELY (my preferred choice), pierce 2-3 times with knife, microwave for 4 minutes, then cut in half lengthwise (squash will be MUCH easier to cut after microwaving). Scoop out seeds with a spoon. Rub with oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place CUT SIDE DOWN at one edge of pan.
• PREPARE VEGETABLES: Toss sliced onions and cut vegetables with oil, salt and pepper. Spread out in one layer on pan beside squash. If you don't have a large enough pan, use one pan for squash and another for vegetables.
• ROAST SQUASH AND VEGETABLES for 30-40 minutes (depending on size of squash) until squash can be easily pierced with a fork and vegetables are beginning to caramelize. Stir veggies half way through roasting. Remove from oven and let squash cool for 10 minutes. If veggies need more time, return to oven for 5-10 minutes to ensure any liquid is absorbed. Using a fork, 'rake' squash to create "spaghetti' strands. Note 1 to microwave squash. Note 2 to grill vegetables.
• MAKE DRESSING (OPTIONAL): While veggies are roasting, make dressing if desired. Whisk together all ingredients. Note 3 for dressing options.
• ASSEMBLE AND SERVE: Transfer squash strands to plate or bowl. Top with roasted vegetables. Drizzle on dressing if using. Or drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle generously with Parmesan cheese. Garnish with chopped parsley or other chopped fresh herbs.

• Bake in the preheated oven until squash is tender and easily pierced with a fork, 40 to 45 minutes. Allow squash and garlic to rest until cool enough to handle. Leave the oven on.
• Peel garlic and squeeze cloves into a large bowl. Smash with a fork until smooth. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil, onion powder, basil, oregano, and parsley. Mix into a paste.
