View the previous recipe for this meal.

Or maybe call it Spaghetti Spaghetti Squash? Either way, tossing strands of spaghetti squash with strands of whole wheat or brown rice spaghetti makes both of them taste that much better. Serve this dish anytime a meal calls for spaghetti or spaghetti squash.

Ingredients

  • 1 spaghetti squash, about 1-2 pounds
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 clove garlic, finely minced, optional
  • 4 ounces pasta, whole wheat or brown rice spaghetti
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil, extra virgin, optional

Serving Size: 2 People

Preparation Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400. Cut the squash in half and discard the seeds. Place in a baking dish. Fill the cavity with a pinch of salt in each, water and the minced garlic if using.

Roast for about 20-25 minutes depending on the thickness of the squash until a spoon cuts into the flesh. Cool long enough to be able to handle it, before scooping out the strands of squash.

Meanwhile, bring a pot of water to a boil. Add in the spaghetti and a pinch of salt. Boil about 6-10 minutes depending on the package instructions.

Drain and toss with the hot spaghetti strands and olive oil if desired.
