Thank you Rachel of Wicked Good Spice Mixes Co for today’s recipe. Perfect timing since I grabbed a spaghetti squash at the farmer’s market.
INGREDIENTS:
- 1 large spaghetti squash (about 5 pounds)
- 4 tablespoons Wicked Good Spice Mixes Basil Infused Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 2 medium garlic cloves, finely chopped
- 1 medium shallot, fineland chopped
- 3/4 cup finely grated Parmigano-Reggiano cheese, plus extra for serving
- 2 tablespoons Wicked Good Spice Mixes Tuscan Bistro Blend
DIRECTIONS:
- Heat oven to 400 degrees F and arrange a rack in the middle.
- Cut squash in half lengthwise and scrape out seeds
- Brush flesh with 2 tablespoons of the oil and season generously with sale and freshly ground pepper.
- Place squash, cut sides up, on a baking sheet and roast until fork tender – about 50 minutes
- Remove squash from the oven and let sit at room temperature until cool enough to handle – about 30 minutes
- Scrape flesh with a fork to make long squash strands, set aside
- Heat remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large sauce pan, over medium heat until simmering about 3 minutes. Add garlic and shallot, season with salt and pepper. Cook until softened and lightly brown – about 3 minutes.
- Add reserved squash, toss with tongs to coat thoroughly. Cook until heated through.
- Remove from heat, add cheese a handful at a time while tossing squash to evenly coat.
- Serve with Tuscan Bistro Blend, freshly ground pepper and extra cheese.

I’m so ready for fall mainly so I can start cooking again. Summer in our house means eating out and salads which is okay but I do miss cooking……We don’t have a grill at the condo (too many rules) or I would definitely be grilling all summer long.
