Ingredients
  

  • 1 medium Spaghetti Squash 2-3 lbs & fits in one hand comfortably
  • 2 T Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 2 T Minced Garlic
  • Sea Salt
  • Black Pepper

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400.
  • Cut the top & bottom ends off of the squash. Cut down the middle lengthwise to make 2 equal halves. Scoop the seeds out of the halves.
  • Place squash halves cut side up in a baking dish. Add the olive oil & garlic to the squash, dividing evenly between the halves. Rub the oil & garlic all over the flesh of the squash. Season generously with salt & pepper. Cover the dish with foil after ripping or cut a small steam vent in the center of the foil.
  • Roast for 35-45 minutes, until squash is fork tender all over.
  • Remove from oven & let cool enough to handle. Remove the "spaghetti" from the side using a fork to detach them from the skin. Toss the strands to mix the garlic & seasoning throughout.
  • Serve immediately or store for up to 3 days in the fridge.
  • Enjoy!
