Preheat the oven to 400˚F (200˚C).

Step 2

Poke several holes in the spaghetti squash around the lengthwise center of the squash. Microwave on high for 5 minutes.

Cut the squash in half along the holes. Remove the seeds and pulp with a spoon. Drizzle the squash with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper.

Place the squash cut-side down on baking sheet and bake for 40 minutes, until tender. Let cool.
