Don't let the name throw you! This is awesome!!! This was my baby girl's absolute favorite dessert (not counting my low carb chocolate cup cakes!) I have probably made this recipe about a hundred times and who knows how many ways! I have only listed a few of the variations that I have tried. You are only limited by your lack of imagination!

    Stir everything together, pour into glass pie plate and bake until set. (appx 10 to 20 minutes. I am high altitude, so, sometimes it takes about 25 minutes. When I lived at sea level, it took about 10 minutes. So, keep an eye on it.)

    TO COOK SPAGHETTI SQUASH: Cut squash in half, remove seeds. Put cut side down on plate and cover with plastic wrap. Cook 5 to 15 minutes. Cooking time depends on wattage of microwave. I have a 1200 watt and it takes about 5 minutes. But it took 15 minutes or longer with my old one. It should be fork tender. When it is thoroughly cooked, take a fork and scrape out all of the 'spaghetti' blot excess water from spaghetti and continue as directed in the above recipe.
