Pesto Spag squash and Italian sausage

Doesn’t get much easier than that and so delicious.

Cut squash in half, scoop out seeds. Put In microwavable dish with a bit of water at the botton, cover with plastic film. Nuke for 12 minutes more or less.

Fry the sausages on the side meanwhile.
Scrape the “noodles” into a bowl with butter, pesto and parmesan, add sliced sausages. Oh yeah

I looooove spaghetti squash and have never done it with pesto! Totally going to try it. I tend to just mix it with leftovers (taco meat, crack chicken, burger meat, whatever)

Love spaghetti squash and we grow our own. I’m going to try your recipe with some local pork sausage as it looks yummy. :slight_smile: Here’s my favourite recipe. I usually leave out the tomatoes (or use just a few if they’re from the garden) and add leftover shredded chicken. Warning: it helps if you like garlic.
