Ok. another squash question?!


Question: Ok!. another squash question!?
Hi!. I have a spaghetti squash!. Never heard of it til recently!. Anyway, there are microwave instructions stuck on it (sticker) and you basically have to wrap it in plastic wrap and the microwave it!. I don't like wrapping things with plastic wrap and putting in the microwave!.

Is there a good microwave and/or baked recipe that is easy!? I don't need a complicated one!. Just how to make it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
Bake it!. Cut the squash in half length-wise!. Clean the seeds out of each half!. Put the halves in a large baking dish!. In the center of each half put a couple of tablespoons of butter or margarine and a couple of tablespoons of brown sugar or even maple syrup works!. Sprinkle it with salt and pepper!. Place a cup of hot water in the bottom of the baking dish, cover with aluminum foil and bake 45 minutes at 375 or until tender!.

Bake It -- Pierce the whole shell several times with a large fork or skewer and place in baking dish!. Cook squash in preheated 375!?F oven approximately 1 hour or until flesh is tender!.

Boil It -- Heat a pot of water large enough to hold the whole squash!. When the water is boiling, drop in the squash and cook for 20 to 30 minutes, depending on its size!. When a fork goes easily into the flesh, the squash is done!.

Slow Cooker or Crock-Pot - Choose a smaller spaghetti squash (unless you have an extra large slow cooker) so that it will fit!. Add 2 cups of water to slow cooker!. Pierce the whole shell several times with a large fork or skewer, add to Crock Pot, cover and cook on low for 8 to 9 hours!.
