Spaghetti Squash Pasta Pomodoro

Serves 2

Spaghetti squash

Recipe

1 spaghetti squash

2 Roma tomatoes, diced

1 Tbsp. fresh basil, chopped

1 clove garlic, minced

2 Tbsp. olive oil

Pinch black pepper

1.5 oz. shredded Parmesan cheese

Cut the squash in half, de-seed and roast or steam until tender. To roast, place cut side down on a foil-lined baking sheet and bake in a 350°F oven for 35 minutes, or until fork tender. To steam, place both cleaned halves into a steamer or pressure cooker and cook, following manufacturer’s directions.

Cool squash to room temperature. Using a fork remove and shred the flesh of the squash into a bowl or plate and set aside.

In 10-inch sauté pan, heat oil over medium heat, add garlic and cook until lightly brown. Add 3/4 of the diced tomatoes and sauté for 1 minute. Add squash and 3 Tbsp. water. Cook for 2 minutes to reheat the squash, mixing gently. Add chopped basil and black pepper. Toss once or twice and serve. Sprinkle cheese over the top and garnish with remaining diced tomatoes.
