Growing up I remember my mom would make spaghetti squash & serve it as the "pasta" for spaghetti & meatballs. I loved it then & I love it now! Not to mention, its a great way to sneak your kids(& husbands) their vegetables. If you've never made a spaghetti squash you are missing out! They are so easy to cook & this meal here is something that Rachel Ray & Sandra Lee can appreciate, because its fast & it "semi- homemade". I always make my own sauce, usually with just some finely chopped garlic, onions, a couple cans of crushed tomatoes, & some herbs. To my sauce I added some frozen turkey meatballs(don't knock em until you've tried em). Now as for the squash, you I cut it in half & scooped out all the seeds. I then drizzled a little olive oil on the 2 halves & sprinkled a little salt & pepper on them. I put them in a dish with a little water covering the bottom & cooked them in the microwave for about 15 minutes...THATS IT! Thats all you have to do to enjoy this beautiful little squash! Obviously it gets its name because of its spaghetti noodle like texture, which makes the fooling your family much easier.Healthy & fabulous!
