If you’ve never tried spaghetti squash, it’s time to give it a whirl (a twirl, rather?). In this super easy 5-ingredient recipe, the squash is both the cooking vessel and the base, making for a fun presentation with practically no cleanup. It’s such an easy and impressive dinner, especially since the cooking is almost entirely hands-off.
As spaghetti squash roasts, it transforms from a firm, uniform texture to silky, stringy strands that really do resemble spaghetti. Inspired by classic pasta flavors, this recipe creates a “spaghetti sauce” for the squash from tomatoes, garlic, and creamy feta cheese spiked with olive oil and flavorful Italian seasoning.
But the real magic trick? That sauce comes together inside the squash as it roasts in the oven! After halving and seasoning the squash, all you have to do is toss whole cherry tomatoes, sliced garlic, a chunk of feta, and a drizzle of oil in each cavity and pop it all in the oven.
As everything roasts, the squash becomes tender, the tomatoes burst, and the feta becomes ultra-creamy, forming a luscious and decadent sauce. Each squash half is a perfect serving, and diners can watch the magic happen on their plates as they stir everything together.
