Notes
- There are many ways to cook spaghetti squash but my favorite is in the instant pot! Slice the squash horizontally through the middle and scoop out the seeds then put 1 cup of water in the instant pot with the squash and cook for 6 minutes on high.
- You can also bake the spaghetti squash at 400 degrees on a cookie sheet after slicing vertically and scooping the seeds out, for 30-40 minutes.
