  • 2 tablespoons oil, divided
  • 1 medium spaghetti squash, halved the long way and seeds removed
  • 2 tablespoons fresh herbs of your choice OR 2 teaspoons dried herbs like basil, thyme, oregano
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Pre-heat oven to 400°F. Brush a baking dish with l tablespoons of oil and place the squash flat side down. Bake 30-45 minutes, or until a fork can easily pierce through the skin. Cool for 5 minutes.
  2.  Scoop the squash into a bowl. Toss with the remaining tablespoon oil, herbs, black pepper and salt.

Reduce Food Waste: When using fresh soft herbs, use the stems, too – they have the same flavor as the leaves with added crunch!

Try this! Toss in cooked chopped chicken or canned chicken and tomato sauce.
