1 spaghetti squash (8-inch)   1 cup onions,   chopped 2 cloves garlic,   1/2 lb mushrooms, sliced   salt & pepper   1 cup  ricotta cheese   1 cup mozzarella cheese, grated   1/4 cup spinach (fresh, but could be frozen), chopped   1 teaspoon basil   1 teaspoon of dill  1 dash thyme   1 cup fine breadcrumbs   butter (for saute)   parmesan cheese         - Slice squash in half crosswise (not lengthwise) and scoop out seeds.
  - Bake it face down on a buttered tray for 30 to 40 minutes or until easily pierced by a fork.
  - Cool until ready to be handled.
  - Scoop out the insides gently with a fork which will form into spaghetti strands.
  - Save the "shell" of the squash
  - While the squash bakes, saute the onions and garlic with salt, pepper, mushrooms and herbs.
  - Cook onion until soft
  - Combine the ingredients.
  - Pour back into the "shell" of the squash. Top with lots of grated Parmesan cheese. Bake uncovered about 40 minutes in a 375 degrees oven.

This recipe sounds awesome Jane, I wonder how this one would work with Butternut or Sweet Dumpling squash?     Nacho!  |

WOW, I just gotta try it!  I usually just roast it with butter added to the cavity and then after raking it out with a fork add some more butter and salt & pepper.  |

Nacho,  Just wondering if you tried this recipe with a different squash.  I was thinking about making this for dinner tonight. I forgot I had left the recipe.   I just love, love, love it!  |
