Ingredients:

 

  • 1 spaghetti squash
  • 1-2 tbsp EVOO
  • 1 shallot, thinly sliced
  • 1 whole garlic clove

  • Preheat oven to 400F
  • Prepare the squash by cutting it in half, scooping out the seeds. Drizzle olive oil, salt and pepper on the inside of the squash. Roast for 30-40 minutes (until tender with a fork). Use a fork to scrape and fluff the strands from the inside of the squash.
