Spaghetti Squash the Keto WOE


Are you eating the Keto Way Of Eating and would DIE for some pasta?  

I thought that the name, spaghetti SQUASH, was indicative of how it would taste.  

Squash...  doesn't bring images of fresh pasta now does it...

But I'm gonna tell ya, this is a hidden jem of a fruit.  I looked it up.  I thought it may have been a vegetable, but I would have been wrong.

Ingredients

1 Spaghetti Squash (or vegetable spaghetti)
1 tablespoon Olive Oil
Salt, Pepper and Garlic to taste

Stuff you will need

Cutting board
1 french knife
1 cookie sheet
Parchment Paper
1 large spoon
1 large fork
BBQ Brush
Oven gloves

Directions

Pre-heat your oven to 400 F.

Cut the ends off the spaghetti squash, about a 1/2 inch or so.  (What you are doing is creating a flat surface to stand it on end)

Stand the spaghetti squash on end.

CAREFULLY, cut the spaghetti squash in 1/2 down the long axis.

Using the spoon, core out the innards and dispose them in your green bin or compost heap.

Using the BBQ brush, liberally coat the inside of the spaghetti squash with Olive Oil.

Line the cookie sheet with parchment paper.

Salt, pepper and garlic the inside of the spaghetti squash and then put the 2 halves, skin side up, on the cookie sheet.

Into the pre-heated oven for 40 minutes.

After 40 minutes, remove and let cool for about 10 minutes.

Using a oven glove, hold the spaghetti squash and using the fork, scrape the "spaghetti" out of the spaghetti squash.

For your viewing pleasure, here is a video of me cooking it.
