Instructions
- 1
Preheat the oven to 400°F (205°C). Place the spaghetti squash halves cut-side up on a rimmed baking sheet, brush with 1 tbsp olive oil, and sprinkle with 1/2 tsp salt. Roast for 40–45 minutes, until the flesh is tender and a fork slides through the strands with no resistance.

Let the squash cool for 10 minutes, then use a fork to scrape the flesh into long strands. Transfer the strands to a colander and press gently with a clean kitchen towel to remove excess moisture. Set aside.
