  1. This recipe was such a pleasant surprise. The spaghetti squash came out with a nice nutty sweetness and the prep was super simple – just oil, salt, pepper and into the oven. I served it with a light tomato-herb sauce and honestly it felt like a special side dish rather than just something “healthy”. Will keep this in my rotation for sure.
