INSTANT POT SPAGHETTI SQUASH WITH MARINARA
This might be the easiest way to cook spaghetti squash -- pierce a whole squash all over with a fork, then cook it in a pressure cooker until perfectly tender. It cooks in a fraction of the time it would take in the oven, and there's no need to struggle with cutting the sturdy squash beforehand.

Steps:
- Add 1 cup water to a 6-quart Instant Pot®, then put the rack in the bottom with the handles going up the sides. Deeply pierce the squash all over 12 to 16 times with a fork, then place on the rack (if needed, trim the stem so the squash fits comfortably in the pot, but be careful not to cut into the squash itself).
- Follow the manufacturer's guide for locking the lid and preparing to cook. Set to pressure cook on high for 12 minutes (see Cook's Note).
- Meanwhile, add the canned tomatoes to a medium bowl and use your hands to lightly crush the tomatoes. Set aside.
- After the pressure-cook cycle is complete, follow the manufacturer's guide for quick release and wait until the quick-release cycle is complete. Being careful of any remaining steam, unlock and remove the lid. Use 2 kitchen towels to remove the rack and squash to a cutting board. Carefully pour the water out of the pot. Allow the squash to cool slightly while you prepare the marinara sauce.
- Set the pot to high saute and allow it to heat up for 2 minutes. Add 2 tablespoons of the oil, then add the onions and a large pinch of salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are softened and starting to brown lightly, 6 to 8 minutes. Add the garlic and a pinch of red pepper flakes and cook, stirring frequently, until the garlic is softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the reserved tomatoes and a large pinch of salt and bring to a strong simmer; cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is reduced slightly and thickened, about 10 minutes. Season with additional salt and red pepper flakes if needed.
- While the sauce is reducing, remove the squash from the rack and split it in half lengthwise. Use a spoon to remove the seeds, then use a fork to scrape the strands of squash from the inside of the skin.
- Transfer the squash to a large platter and stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons oil, 1 teaspoon salt and red pepper flakes to taste. Season with more salt if needed, then top with the hot marinara sauce. Sprinkle with the Parmesan and basil.
SPAGHETTI SQUASH WITH MARINARA SAUCE
Finally got up my nerve to make this and it was a breeze, and also a lot of fun! I tried to fool my son but he wasn't fooled. He actually liked it and went back for seconds. Even the baby liked it! I think we've got a winner!

Steps:
- Wash and dry spaghetti squash. Cut off the bottom stem and discard. Cut the squash in half lengthwise. Scoop out the seeds and filaments completely and discard.
- Place the squash facedown in a 9x13-inch baking pan. Add enough water to the pan to halfway cover the squash.
- Cover with foil and bake in a preheated 375-degree oven for 35 minutes. Stick squash with a knife to test for doneness. If the knife meets no resistance, the squash is done.
- Allow to cool somewhat until you can handle it. With a fork, gently pull the flesh from the squash into a large bowl, using a downward motion. It will come off in long strands that resemble spaghetti.
- Keep warm while you make your favorite marinara sauce. You may use ready-made sauce if you prefer, or make your own.

SPAGHETTI SQUASH WITH MEAT SAUCE
When my mom and I cooked spaghetti squash with meat sauce, all we could do was grin and say "Wow!" It's fun to separate the noodle-like strands from the squash shell, but eating it is the best part! -Lina Vainauskas, Shaw Air Force Base, South Carolina
