Preparation

Roasting
- Place the squash halves cut-side down on the prepared baking sheet and roast for 30-40 minutes, or until fork-tender.
- Remove from the oven and let cool slightly, then use a fork to scrape the strands into a bowl.

- Bake for another 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly before serving hot.
Notes
For extra flavor, you can add some garlic powder or oregano to the spaghetti squash before roasting. Feel free to customize your toppings with other keto-friendly options like mushrooms, bell peppers, or cooked sausage.
