Spaghetti Squash has it’s own kind of magic. Slice one in half and it looks much like any other hard winter squash. But cook it until tender (you can use this easy method here) and that firm flesh transforms into slender threads that are delicious tossed simply with olive oil, salt and pepper. Alternatively, sub your squash for traditional spaghetti or use it in any number of tasty dishes. Below are 12 inventive ideas to get you started.

Squash season makes it easier to let go of tomato season 🙂

I made this for the first time tonight. It was so delicious… I did not miss the pasta in the lasagna. As a recently diagnosed T2 diabetic, I look for my meals to be low in carb/sugar but still familiar from the favorites I used to enjoy. This recipe did just that. I felt like I was cheating. I also love that I can freeze leftovers! That is a big plus. Try this recipe you will love it!
