Spaghetti Squash

My kids didn't know it was squash!!  When I was removing the seeds, the kids asked me what I was cooking, and I told them squash.  They don't like squash, so they complained, and then resumed their homework.  I made sure they weren't in the kitchen when I scraped the strands of spaghetti out of the squash halves...  They totally didn't know what they were eating!  Timmy thought I just made spaghetti and used the squash skins for bowls.  It was kinda fun, he said, like twice baked potatoes.  If only he knew how accurate that really was...  :)

Anyway, as usual, I made changes to the recipe which is found here:  Spaghetti Squash

Turkey Italian sausage instead of pork sausage, and a quick pomodoro sauce instead of jarred sauce.  (Diced fresh tomatoes, red pepper flakes, dried basil, a splash of cream...)

My spaghetti squash were pretty small, so we each had one half, and Tanner (the one who doesn't eat much) shared with the baby...

Delicious!
