For this recipe, we recommend using a medium-sized spaghetti squash. This size works well for most recipes and will provide enough squash for multiple servings. However, you can also use a larger or smaller squash depending on your preferences and the number of people you are serving.
To prepare the spaghetti squash, start by cutting it in half lengthwise and removing the seeds. Next, place the squash halves cut side down on a baking sheet and bake in the oven at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 35-45 minutes. Once the squash is cooked and cooled, use a fork to scrape out the flesh into strings, which will resemble spaghetti noodles.
