How to Cook Spaghetti Squash
BAKE IT:
Pierce the whole shell several times with a large fork or skewer and place in baking dish. Cook squash in preheated 375°F (190°C) oven approximately 1 hour or until flesh is tender.

BOIL IT:
Heat a pot of water large enough to hold the whole squash.When the water is boiling, drop in the squash and cook for 20 to 30 minutes, depending on its size.When a fork goes easily into the flesh, the squash is done.

MICROWAVE IT:
Cut the squash in half lengthwise; remove seeds. Place squash cut sides up in a microwave dish with 1/4 cup (2 ounces, 55 ml) water.Cover with plastic wrap and cook on high for 10 to 12 minutes, depending on size of squash.Add more cooking time if necessary. Let stand covered, for 5 minutes. Once the squash is cooked, let it cool for 10 to 20 minutes so it will be easier to handle. Cut in half (if it wasn’t already) and remove the seeds. Pull a fork lengthwise through the flesh to separate pulp into long strands.You can do these steps ahead of time.
