Spaghetti Squash - What was I waiting for?

I don't know why it took me so long to try spaghetti squash.  But...I finally did.  Guess what?
I love it!  It tastes similar to some other squashes, but of course, the texture is different.  After trying the recipe I'll link to, and liking it so much, I can think of so many other possibilities for using this tasty vegetable.

The recipe I tried is Tomato Basil Spaghetti Squash Bake.  Just click through to go to the recipe on the site Alaska From Scratch.

First...I looked for some basic instructions for baking the squash.  It was SO simple.
HERE is the link.  I chose the oven baking method.  Yummm.  It was tasty just out of the oven, before making it into a casserole.

This photo of the finished casserole came from the blog where I found the recipe.  That's because I forgot to take a photo of mine before cutting it into pieces to store in the fridge.  Ooops.

Anyway, I hope you'll try this recipe.  It's SO good!

I'm thinking that next time I make this, I'll add some chopped jalapeno peppers.  Or some chopped spinach.  Or mushrooms.  See?  Lots of possibilities.

Enjoy!
