Ingredients

5 lbs. spaghetti squash

1/4 cup olive oil

2 cloves minced garlic

3/4 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese

1 tsp. white pepper (optional)

1 tbsp. minced fresh basil or parsley

Additional parmesan cheese for passing

Directions

Pierce squash in several places with a long-tined fork or metal skewer. Place on bakign pan and bake 1 12/ to 2 hours. Using potholders, squeeze squash to test for doneness. It is ready when it gives slightly under pressure. Remove and cool.

Heat saucepan over heat, pour in olive oil. Add garlic and cook until tender but not browned for about 5 minutes.

When squash is cool enough to handle, cut in half lengthwise and scoop out seeds and stringy portions. Using a fork, pull pulp from the shell in long strands and add them to the warm garlic oil.

Toss squash strands gently with pepper, salt and cheese. Pour into a serving bowl and garnish with basil or parsley. Serve immediately. Pass additional cheese at the table.

***Strains of cooked spaghetti squash can be tossed with your favorite marinara sauce, mushroom sauce or pesto. The empty shell halves are nice to use as a serving bowl.
