Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
1 (2-3 pound) spaghetti squash
2 tablespoons olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1/2 - 1 cup pasta sauce, to taste
1/2 - 1 cup mozzarella, to taste
Optional: fresh chopped basil, dried oregano, or Italian seasoning
Directions:
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Lightly oil a baking sheet or coat with nonstick spray.
2. Cut the squash in half lengthwise from stem to tail and scrape out the seeds. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
3. Place squash, cut-side down, onto the prepared baking dish. Place into oven and roast until tender, about 35-45 minutes.
4. Remove from oven and let rest until cool enough to handle.
5. Using a fork, scrape the spaghetti squash strands from the shell.
6. Place strands in a bowl and mix with pasta sauce and additional spices, if desired.
7. Spoon mixture back into shells and sprinkle with mozzarella cheese.
8. Bake for 7-9 minutes or until cheese is melted, bubbly, and slightly browned. Spoon and serve directly from shell.


*Tip: Place the whole spaghetti squash in the microwave for 3-5 mins before cutting it in half. This makes the squash more tender and easier to slice.
