The Simplest way ever to cook spaghetti squash (or any squash) is in the slow cooker. Just toss it in with a little water and cook until tender, about 2-½ hours on HIGH, or 4 to 6 hours on LOW.
1spaghetti squash (or any winter squash you like best)
Instructions
Ideal slow cooker size: 4- to 6-Quart. (Large enough to hold the squash.)
Place whole squash in a slow cooker. Add ½ cup water.
Cover and cook on HIGH for 2 to 3 hours, or LOW for 4 to 6 hours, or until squash is soft.
Slice squash in half lengthwise; scoop out and discard the seeds.
Use a fork to scrape out spaghetti squash strands. Place in a strainer to drain excess moisture. For best flavor, horoughly blot dry, removing as much moisture as possible.
Recipe Notes
A 4-pound squash yields about 5 cups cooked squash, sometimes more.
