agassifan fake pesto spaghetti squash
Submitted by: AGASSIFANIntroduction
This is my favourite way to eat spaghetti squash. I like cooking it in its own skin and keeping all the vitamins intact, not to mention, it saves cleaning a baking dish.The original dish called for pesto sauce, this cuts way back on the oil from that recipe.

Ingredients
-
2 lb spaghetti squash...size of a small boys USA football
2 tsp garlic flavoured olive oil
3 oz asiago cheese, grated
1 oz parmesan cheese, grated
1 tbsp dried basil
1/4 tsp black pepper, freshly ground
1 oz hot water (if needed)
1 garlic clove, minced (omit if you have garlic flavoured oil)
Directions
1) Remove the stem of the spaghetti squash by cutting around it with a paring knife. Place whole squash in microwave and "nuke" for 4 minutes, rotate squash 1/4 turn, and "nuke" for 4 more minutes, keep repeating the rotating and "nuking" until squash is just tender all the way around...use a hot pad when you handle the squash...leave in the microwave to steam for 1 or 2 minutes.
2) Using a hot pad, remove squash from microwave and slice in half length-wise, Using a spoon, lightly scrape out the seeds (into the trash) without digging into the edible flesh. Using a fork, scrape/fluff "spaghetti" into a bowl.
3) Add other ingredients (except water) and mix.
4) Place bowl of squash in microwave and heat for 1 minute. Mix squash again to blend and add a little hot water if the mixture appears to be too dry...amount you add depends on just how juicy your squash is.
