Directions:

As always- I start by baking  my hard Squash. This makes the Squash easy to handle! While the Squash is baking in the oven, I begin my veggie prep! I dice each veggie, in big chunks. This just cuts down on time.

I throw all the veggies in the bottom of a heated pot, with olive oil. I season with salt, pepper, and thrown in some diced rosemary and time. I add the vegetables in the order listed above, based on texture preference and cook time.

After the vegetables are sautéed brown, I add my sauce. At this time, I pull out my spaghetti squash, and slice it half. I usually scoop out the seeds, and put the squash back into the oven. 

I let the sauce simmer, and add a touch of water. I also love to toast flatbread, with butter, garlic and parmesan cheese on top!

Build your Spaghetti right in the Squash, and enjoy on a plate!
