I'm always looking for a way to eat squash and this is a great one. It's like spaghetti but better for you.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

Have you ever added spaghetti squash to a casserole before? It can raise a few eyebrows at first, but spaghetti squash is truly a wonderful addition to many traditional recipes. This particular casserole has a distinctly Italian flavor and makes a wonderful side dish. Skeptical or not, this is one I recommend you try.
