Roasted Spaghetti Squash with mushrooms, garlic and sage

spaghetti squash (about 2 lbs)

Tablespoon butter

mushrooms

4-6 garlic cloves, finely chopped

Tablespoons fresh torn sage

nutmeg

Romano cheese (or Parmesan) OPTIONAL

drizzle truffle oil –

pine nuts – optional but delicious!

Cut spaghetti squash in half (either way) and place open side down on a parchment lined baking sheet. Bake 40 minutes-50 minutes &#8211; or microwave for 12 minutes.

While squash is baking, heat oil and butter in a large skillet over medium high heat. Sauté onions until just tender about 2-3 minutes. Add mushrooms , turn heat to medium and saute until they begin to release their liquid,about 5-7 minutes. Add garlic and sage and continue cooking until mushrooms brown, about 4 minutes. Season generously with salt and pepper and nutmeg.

Check squash, by piercing with the tip of a sharp knife to see if it&#8217;s done.

When tender, take out of the oven, turn over and let it cool slightly until cool enough to handle, then scoop out seeds. Scoop out the spaghetti squash into the saute pan with the mushrooms and stir to incorporate. Taste for salt, and add more if necessary. Stir in most of grated cheese, saving some for garnish. Place in a serving bowl, top with remaining cheese and a drizzle of truffle oil and sprinkling of pine nuts.

OMG...This was delicious!  I threw in ground beef for my husband.  This is going in my recipe box.

YUM! Was inspired to make this for lunch today. I made a few modifications to cut down on calories: did not use any butter, olive oil, cheese or pine nuts. Instead I added a hefty amount of spinach, used 1/2 tbsp truffle oil, and added 1/8 cup crushed walnuts in the whole thing. I plugged the ingredients into MyFitnessPal and it ended up being only 172 calories per serving (2 1/2 cups)! It was pretty filling to. Will definitely be making again &amp; might double next time! Makes for a really great light lunch or dinner.

I Just made this vegan style with nutritional yeast for the cheese, and this dish is amazing!!! It’s the perfect fall/winter meal. Definitely making this again.

I made this is dish last night. I put my own spin on it adding additional veggies and herbs. This was my first time preparing this dish and it was an awesome selection. I will totally have this many more times :) Thanks soooo much... 

what did I do different?

I placed the olive oil and butter in the pan added onions, red and yellow peppers allowed then to get a nice browning then I added fresh basil, rosemary, oregano, blended that in. then I added mushrooms and garlic the aroma was amazing then I added chopped spinach finally adding the squash... awesome

Simple and delicious! Love the sage, it adds a nice touch.

I was going to make this as a side for dinner last night as I already had ground turkey out but I decided to add the turkey to it and make it the main dish. I served it with a kale salad. It was delicious. I didn’t have truffle oil and pine nuts on hand but will add them next time and leave out the turkey. We’re trying to incorporate more veggies, less meat into our diet. I have tried half a dozen of your recipes and they’ve all been good. I appreciate that you provide the nutritional data as well on your recipes.

So good! I made it as is with baby spinach added at the end. If anything - mine had *too much* flavor but I think I did it on the garlic, sage and nutmeg so will use less next time. Thank you for a great vegan option!

Fantastic!   I added tons of spinach, toasted walnuts and didn’t have any sage so left that out.  The truffle oil and some Maldon salt were the finishing touches that made this dish so incredibly delicious!

You can make this your main dish by adding protein like chicken or ham or as a side dish!

Here's the right way to make roasted spaghetti squash in the oven! This method makes long, luxurious spaghetti "noodles".

Roasted Spaghetti Squash (the Right Way!)

spaghetti squash (2-3 pounds)

Kosher salt and fresh ground pepper

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Farenheit.

Using a small sharp paring knife, cut the spaghetti squash around the middle width-wise (not lengthwise!). To cut, pierce the knife into the squash and swing down, making small slices around the squash until it breaks in half. Use the knife to cut around the seeds, and then scoop them out with a spoon.

Rub inside with the olive oil. Place the halves on baking sheet cut side up, and roast 40 to 55 minutes (depending on the size and freshness of the squash), until tender all the way through when pierced with a fork.

Allow the squash to cool slightly, then use a fork to scrape out the squash into “spaghetti” strands. Place the noodles in a colander or strainer and rest for 10 minutes to remove any extra moisture.

Season with salt and pepper, or use in our Spaghetti Squash Spaghetti or Pesto Spaghetti Squash.

Roasted Spaghetti Squash is so versatile and easy to make! Here is a basic recipe.

Roasted Spaghetti Squash

salt and fresh pepper (to taste)

Preheat oven to 350°F.

Cut the squash in half lengthwise, scoop out the seeds and fibers with a spoon.

Bake at 350° about 1 hour or until the skin gives easily under pressure and the inside is tender. Remove from oven and let it cool 10 minutes.

Using a fork, scrape out the squash flesh a little at a time. It will separate into spaghetti-like strands.

Place in a serving dish and serve hot.

How to Roast Spaghetti Squash

salt & pepper

Cut the spaghetti squash into 1 inch widthwise slices with a sharp chef&#8217;s knife. (If your knife is not wanting to go through the shell, make a few small incisions with a paring knife in a circle around the exterior of the squash shell, then with a chef&#8217;s knife follow the knife nicks.  This will make it easier to break through the shell and cut a straight line.). Scoop out the seeds and inner strands with a spoon.

Brush both sides of the squash rings with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.  Layout on a baking sheet with parchment paper.  Place in the oven for 15 minutes.  Flip the squash rings over and bake for 15 minutes more.  Or until softened enough to fork apart.

While still on the tray, pick the squash with a fork, separating the strands out from the peel.

I'm excited to try this method as I eat a lot of spaghetti squash -- usually covered with your Carrot Miso Sauce (which is divine) and roasted vegetables.

I’m not gonna lie, cutting through the tough shell was challenging but your suggestion was helpful. The results were supreme and my family loved the squash in place of pasta. We paired it with my husband’s marinara. Voila! Dinner was served.

So much easier, and faster, than cooking the squash in halves. Thank you for posting such a great time-saver!

There&#39;s a hard way and an easy way to roast spaghetti squash. Here&#39;s the easiest way to get buttery roasted strands of squash on your table fast.

spaghetti squash, (approx. 1.3 lbs) (1.05)

olive oil (0.15)

salt (0.01)

Tbsp salted butter (0.30)

Place a rack in the center of your oven and preheat it to 400°F. Line a sheet pan with parchment. Place a dish towel on your cutting board to stabilize the squash, and then trim off 1/4 inch from both ends.

Place the cut bottom of the squash on your cutting board with the stem side facing up. Cut down the center of the squash, from the top to the bottom.

Use a soup spoon to scrape out all of the seeds in the cavity of the squash. If you wish, reserve them for roasting.

Brush olive oil on both halves of the squash and sprinkle salt on them.

Place the halves cut side down on the sheet pan. Roast your squash for 30 to 45 minutes or until a fork easily pierces the skin.*

Allow the squash to cool until it&#39;s comfortable to hold. Use a fork to scrape the squash halves in one direction, creating spaghetti-like strands.

Dress with butter and serve.

An easy method for roasting spaghetti squash to get the BEST spaghetti squash noodles each and every time! ;)

kosher salt and fresh ground black pepper

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

Chop the tip and the tail off of the spaghetti squash, cut it in half length-wise, and scoop the seeds out of each half.

Rub about a tablespoon of olive oil over the flesh of each half. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.

Place the squash cut-side down on a baking sheet.

Roast the squash for 35 to 50 minutes or until the flesh is tender. Note: For crunchy noodles, roast for 35 minutes. For al dente noodles, roast for 40-45. For tender noodles, roast for 50 to 55 minutes.

When the squash is cool enough to handle, use a fork to gently scrape the flesh, releasing spaghetti-like stands. Do this until both halves of the spaghetti squash are scraped clean and place the “spaghetti” into a large serving bowl.

Note that some water will seep out of the “spaghetti” – in order to drain the water, allow the spaghetti to sit in a bowl (or fine colander) and use a slotted spoon to scoop it on plates.

Serve spaghetti squash with your favorite sauce and parmesan cheese.
