1. Preheat oven to 350ºF.
Cut spaghetti squash in half lengthwise and remove the seeds. (you can save the seeds if like eating/snacking on seeds…..they are good roasted the same way you might roast pumpkin seeds or peanuts). If not, throw them out.

2. Place squash open side down in a large baking dish and fill dish halfway with water.
Bake for about a half hour.

3. While squash is cooking, heat oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat.
Add onion, garlic, the shredded butternut squash, and the herbs/spices and then sauté for about 5 minutes. Salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a boil and reduce heat and simmer. If you want it thicker, use corn starch, or add water if you want it thinner.

4. Remove squash from oven and carefully rake the squash pulp from the shell with a fork. It will resemble spaghetti. Place on your serving plates (a large squash will serve about 4 people.

5. Spoon sauce over squash. This is a great vegan dish that’s different. If you have a non-dairy parmesan cheese, that will add a nice touch.
