1. To cut open spaghetti squash: Use a sharp knife to poke a few holes in the squash where you want to cut. It should look like youโve drawn a dotted line lengthwise on the squashโฃ
2. Place your squash in the microwave for 5-6 minutes. Let it cool. Cut along the dotted lineโฃ
3. Scoop out inside of the squash and discard (save seeds if you want to cook them along with the spaghetti squash on the baking sheet)
4. Rub olive oil all over the inside of each squashโฃ
5. Place squash face down on a baking sheet (seeds too if you want) and bake for 30-35 mins at 400ยฐ
6. While the squash is baking, cook your ground turkey on a panโฃ
7. Cut up zucchini, onion, and any additional veggies and sautรฉ on the stovetopโฃ
8. Combine ground meat and veggies and set aside until spaghetti squash is done cookingโฃ
9. Once the squash is done (A knife should easily glide into any part of the inside of the squash)โฃ, use a fork to scrape and fluff the strands from the squash to create the noodles.
