Ingredients:

Serving

1 spaghetti squash
1/4 cup water

Directions:

Wash the squash and leave it wet. Microwave it for 5 minutes to help soften the skin (it's still really hard).
Cut squash lengthwise and remove seeds.
To Microwave: put squash halves cut side down in baking dish in 1/4 cup of water covered with plastic. Nuke it for 7-10 minutes.
To Bake: put squash halves cut side down in baking dish in 1/4 cup of water and bake for 45 minutes covered with foil. Don't let the water cook away. Check it and add more if needed.
After it's cooled slightly, scrape out the veggie strands with a fork and season with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic and parmesan cheese or proceed with another spaghetti squash recipe.
