Video: How To Make Pasta Marinara With Spaghetti Squash
Roasted squash meets cheese and sauce
Craving lasagna or baked ziti, but not the time-consuming process that goes with it? Spaghetti squash is your new best friend.
It may seem unassuming at first, but once roasted and fork-tender, the squash's flesh gives way to spaghetti-like tendrils. This provides the perfect backdrop for an herby marinara sauce and loads of fresh mozzarella. A second trip to the oven helps the sauce meld and cheese melt. Boom: Your Italian-inspired dinner is served.
Watch the video to see how we took the modest spaghetti squash and turned it into a delicious meal.
