Spaghetti Squash with Feta Cheese
I love how different seasons bring about different types of fresh fruits and vegetables to the dinner menu. Last year, after hearing so many friends talk about how much they all love spaghetti squash, we finally took the plunge and tried it. I must admit, I was skeptical because I love pasta. I couldn’t figure out how the words squash and spaghetti could possibly go together and taste good. Well, let me be the first to tell you–if you are skeptical like me, don’t be! Your whole family will love spaghetti squash and you can eat it without the guilt of adding another pasta dish to your menu.
Most of my friends said to simply cook the spaghetti squash and add your favorite sauce (homemade or not!) for the meal. But I like to change things up a bit, add more flavor and a little bit of spice. My favorite recipe for spaghetti squash that I’ve done is Spaghetti Squash with Feta Cheese. Simple and full of flavor!
