Spaghetti squash, so named because its flesh comes apart in long
strands when cooked, gets dressed up in an easy way for a satisfying
side dish.
Ingredients:
1 spaghetti squash, (3 lb/1.5 kg)
1/4 cup (50 mL) freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Herb Butter:
3 tbsp (45 mL) butter
1 large clove garlic, minced
1/4 tsp (1 mL) salt
2 tbsp (25 mL) chopped fresh sage or fresh basil or fresh parsley
1/4 tsp (1 mL) pepper
1/4 cup (50 mL) freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Herb Butter:
3 tbsp (45 mL) butter
1 large clove garlic, minced
1/4 tsp (1 mL) salt
2 tbsp (25 mL) chopped fresh sage or fresh basil or fresh parsley
1/4 tsp (1 mL) pepper
Preparation:
Halve and seed squash. Place, cut side down, on lightly
greased baking sheet; bake in 400°F (200°C) oven for about 1 hour or
until flesh is easily pierced. (Alternatively, microwave, flesh side up
and covered with plastic wrap, at High for 15 minutes or until easily
pierced.) Using fork, gently scrape cooked strands from squash; transfer
to large bowl.
Herb Butter: Meanwhile, in small saucepan, melt butter over medium-low heat; add garlic and salt. Cook for about 5 minutes or until garlic starts to turn golden. Remove from heat; stir in sage and pepper. Pour over squash; add cheese and toss.

Acorn Squash with Herb Butter: Substitute 2 acorn squash, halved and seeded. Bake for about 45 minutes or until tender; brush with Herb Butter. Sprinkle with cheese and return to 400°F (200°C) oven for 5 minutes.
