I don’t think spaghetti squash gets nearly enough love. In the fall, there’s so much hype around pumpkin recipes, but spaghetti squash is left behind, maybe because of a lack of knowledge about how to cook it or what to pair with it. Roasting spaghetti squash doesn’t need to be complicated. Roast simply with olive oil, salt, and pepper until slightly caramelized and tender. Add your favorite sauce and some cheese, and you’ve got a satisfying seasonal meal; plus, there’s a built-in bowl! In this blog post, I share step-by-step instructions on how to cook spaghetti squash and a few of my top cooking tips.

These are tips from the pros that I have adapted to work in my home kitchen. Learning these skills has taken away the frenzy and chaos of cooking and made it an enjoyable process for me. Start practicing these pro tips and make meal time so much easier.
