DIRECTIONS
Before beginning this recipe, prepare spaghetti squash. You will need about a 2-2.5 lb squash. Prick the squash in several places and bake 45 minutes until tender in a preheated 400°F oven. Allow to cool slightly; cut in half, lengthwise; and scoop out seeds and discard. Pull out squash strands from each side with a fork. Transfer to a bowl to cool. Alternatively, cut the squash in half, remove the seeds, place cut-side down on a microwaves safe plate and heat on high heat for 5 minutes at a time checking in between heatings to see when it has fully cooked through (about 10-15 minutes).- Whisk the olive oil with the green onions, parsley, cilantro, salt, and pepper. Pour over baked, cooled squash; toss until well combined.
- Refrigerate 2 hours for flavors to blend.
