How to Cook Spaghetti Squash

-Cut your spaghetti squash in half, lengthwise.

-Remove and discard the seeds.

-Place your squash halves, cut-side down, on a baking dish.

-Use a fork to poke some holes in the squash skin.

-Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 30 to 40 minutes until tender.

-After it's done, remove the "spaghetti" (squash pulp) from its shell by using a fork to scrape and separate the spaghetti squash from the outer rind. The squash strands actually look like real spaghetti.

Serve hot with any of your favorite spaghetti sauce recipes.

One medium-sized (3 pounds) spaghetti squash will make about four servings.
