Spaghetti Squash with Basil Recipe

Spaghetti squash is a great alternative to pasta/spaghetti. Try using Stamatopoulos & Sons Mint Basil olive oil for an extra basil flavor. 

Makes 4 servings (one big spaghetti squash).

Ingredients:

• 1 Spaghetti Squash
• 2 tbsp Stamatopoulos & Sons Mint Basil olive oil
• 1 tbsp dried basil
• 2 smashed garlic cloves
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Handful fresh basil - optional

Directions: 

1. Pre-heat oven to 425 Fahrenheit. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil.
2. Cut squash in half and scrape out the seeds.
3. Drizzle 1 tbsp of Stamatopoulos & Sons Mint Basil olive oil on the halves and then sprinkle salt, pepper and basil.
4. Place garlic in the middle, flip over so that the cut sides are down, stab a few times with a fork and place in oven for 45-60 minutes until soft.
5. Take out of oven, flip the halves back over and fluff with a fork until it looks just like spaghetti.
6. Drizzle remaining olive oil and top with fresh basil.
