This baked spaghetti squash is great as a low-carb pasta substitute or delicious added to salads. I often just eat it with some Parmesan cheese and olive oil. This recipe is so easy — just cut the squash in half and bake until the skin is easily pierced with a fork. You can add more seasonings before baking it, but I usually spice it up afterward.

Bake in the preheated oven until tender and skin can easily be pierced with a fork, 40 to 60 minutes, depending on the size.

Remove from the oven and allow to rest until cool enough to handle. Scrape out the flesh with a fork and discard the skins.
