Sweet Spaghetti Squash Recipe

So I have been trying to find new recipes and make healthier foods for our family.  So I bought a spaghetti squash on this week's grocery trip, with the intention of finding a great recipe to make with it.  Well this is what I found!  I didn't have the pecans at home, but when I make this again (and I will!!!) I will make sure that I will have the pecans because it will be so much better!!!

(Serves 6-8)

Ingredients:

1 medium spaghetti squash

6 Tablespoons butter

1/4 cup light brown sugar

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/2 cup chopped pecans

Salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

Cut squash in half lengthwise.  Scoop out the seeds then place the halves cut side down in a baking dish filled with enough water to cover the bottom of the dish.  Bake at 350 degrees for an hour or until the shell of the squash is flexible and the inside is tender.  Let the squash cool for 10-15 minutes.  Using a fork, scrape out the inside of the squash to form strands.  Place all of the squash strands into a large bowl and toss with butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, pecans, salt and pepper.  Serve hot.
