Squashin' the Resistance to Squash

Have you met my friend, the spaghetti squash?  This oblong yellow squash can be found in your local supermarket.  Here's the easiest way to make this delicious squash:

First, I put the entire squash into the microwave for 2 minutes, to soften the skin to cut.  Then slit it down the middle.  It kind of reminds me of a pumpkin on the inside.  Scoop the seeds out. 

Then get a cassrole dish out, put a 1/4 c of water in the bottom.  Flip your squash upside down (so the inside is in the water) and cover it with saran wrap.  Put in the microwave and cook for 7-10 minutes.  I usually take the other half of the squash and wrap it in saran wrap, refrigerate it, and enjoy it another day.

Take a fork, and put it into the flesh and pull...the "spaghetti"  will form and then you can plate it up.

I like to salt, pepper, and put a little spaghetti sauce and parm cheese sprinkled on top.  Some people like it with butter and cheese.
