Directions:Cut the spaghetti squash in half, remove the seeds and scoop out all the stringy flesh into a bowl. You will have approximately 5-6 c. of squash. In a medium skillet over medium heat, cook the onion in 1 T. olive oil until translucent, about 4 minutes. Remove pan from heat and cool slightly.
Place the fresh parsley and remaining 1/43 c. of olive oil in a blender and blend just until parsley is broke up. Add the cooled onion, sage and rosemary mixture, Parmesan, lemon juice and pecans. Pulse until somewhat blended but not smooth. Add salt and pepper to taste and a little water if needed.
In the same saute pan you used for the onions, melt the butter and toast up the breadcrumbs (if using) over medium-high heat just until golden, about 2 minutes. To serve, toss spaghetti into the herb sauce and top with toasted breadcrumbs.
(To turn this into a casserole, place squash tossed with herb sauce in a buttered baking dish, tip with the buttered breadcrumbs and bake for 10 minutes at 400º before serving. |
