Steps:
- To cook in the oven, preheat oven to 400 degrees. Cut the squash in half length-wise and scoop out the seeds with a spoon. Discard the seeds. Drizzle with olive oil and place face down on a baking sheet. Bake for 1 hour or until squash is fork tender.
- To cook in the Instant Pot, follow these directions.
- Once squash is cooked, shred the squash into long spaghetti-like strands by using a fork to scrape the squash widthwise.
- Melt the butter in a sauce pan over medium heat.
- Once butter has melted, add the cream, garlic, salt, and pepper and bring to a simmer.
- Turn off the heat and add the shredded Parmesan to the pan. Whisk until the cheese has melted and the sauce is smooth and creamy.

SPAGHETTI SQUASH ALFREDO
Steps:
- Slice spaghetti squash in half lengthwise. Scoop out the seeds with a spoon and clean as you would a pumpkin. Completely submerge 1 half at a time, in a large pot of boiling water and cook for about 20 minutes until the inside is just tender to a fork and pulls apart in strands. (Cook's Note: It is better to undercook if you're not sure.) Remove, drain and cool with cold water or ice bath to stop the cooking.
- Scoop out the cooked squash from its skin with a spoon as you would an avocado and discard the skin. Use a fork to fluff and separate the squash into "spaghetti"- like strands. You can also use your hands. Reserve the separated cooked squash and dip with a strainer into boiling water to reheat just before serving.
- Melt half the butter in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add cream and reduce for about 2 minutes, then add garlic and cheese and whisk quickly, heating through. Stir in the rest of the butter and parsley. Place spaghetti squash in a large serving bowl, and pour Alfredo sauce over squash. Garnish with basil and tomatoes. Serve and enjoy!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Pierce the spaghetti squash shells several times with a fork. Brush 1 teaspoon olive oil evenly over the cut sides of the squash and season with salt. Place spaghetti squash, cut sides down, on the prepared baking sheet.
- Use a sharp knife to cut 1/4 inch from the top of the garlic. Drizzle with 1 teaspoon olive oil and season with a pinch of salt. Wrap in a double layer of foil and place on the baking sheet with the squash.
- Roast in the preheated oven until squash shreds easily with a fork, about 30 minutes.
- Start the sauce after the squash and garlic have been roasting for 20 minutes. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Pour in cream and simmer for 2 minutes. Stir in Parmesan cheese and nutmeg, whisking quickly until smooth. Add remaining 2 tablespoons of butter.
- Remove the squash and garlic from the oven. Pull squash into spaghetti strands with a fork.
- Allow the garlic to cool slightly, then squeeze the cloves into a small dish. Use a fork to mash the pulp into a smooth consistency. Add to the cheese sauce; stir well.
