lol don't worry about it Donna, I had never heard of them before I started low carbing. Spaghetti Squash with Roma Tomato Sauce BBQ Recipe Spaghetti squash separates into strands, like spaghetti, when it is cooked. The texture is slightly crunchy and the flavour a little bland, which is why it goes so well with this roasted tomato sauce seasoned with extra virgin olive oil, basil, and garlic. Top with a spoonful of grated Parmesan. 24 firm, ripe plum tomatoes, cored 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for the tomatoes 1 spaghetti squash, about 3 pounds 4 tablespoons minced fresh basil 1 teaspoon minced garlic salt Freshly ground black pepper Grated Parmesan cheese Lightly spray or brush the cored tomatoes with oil. Grill over Direct Medium heat until blistered and blackened, 8 to 10 minutes, turning once halfway through grilling time. Remove to a platter. Pierce the squash 6 times with the tines of a large fork. Place squash on a double thickness of aluminium foil and grill over Direct Medium heat until squash feels soft when pierced with a fork or pressed with a finger tip, 1 to 1-1/4 hours, turning 3 or 4 times. While the squash is grilling, slip the skins from the tomatoes and cut into 1/4-inch pieces. Place tomatoes and juices in a large saucepan. Add the oil, basil, garlic, and salt and pepper to taste. Set aside. When squash is cooked, wrap in a towel and let stand 10 minutes. Protecting hands with a kitchen towel cut squash in half lengthways. Spoon out and discard the large seeds in centre. Then pull hot squash from the tough outer skin with the tines of a table fork into a large serving bowl. Briefly reheat the tomato sauce in the saucepan. Pour over the spaghetti squash and toss. Serve topped with Parmesan cheese. Makes 4 main dish servings or 6 side dish servings. |

Spaghetti Squash are pale yellow cylindrical squash. The firm pale white flesh sheds away into long strands during cooking, which resemble spaghetti strands. The flesh is slightly crispier than spaghetti and can be appreciated cold with salad or hot with seasoning and butter. |
