Stuffed Spinach and Tomato Spaghetti Squash Recipe
Updated August 2025
Chef’s Tips:
* Spaghetti squash can be tough to cut. To soften it a bit, place it in the microwave for 2-3 minutes, then proceed to cut and seed the squash.
* You can add ground meat or sausage to the sauce to make this a heartier dish.
* If you prefer to serve the squash out of its skin, you can shred the baked squash into individual strands by scraping it out with a fork. You can then top it with the sauce and serve it like a pasta dish.
