We use grated cauliflower as a rice replacement, this (when we can find it) may well be the pasta replacement. As Corey pointed out - you know the veg is not what it is pretending to be - cauliflower is not rice, but it is an excellent substitute. The same I hope follows for the squash.

I find that while roasting the squash whole in the oven is a bit more complicated (cutting it and removing the seeds while still warm) the flavor is more intense. I prefer that method if I have the time, but in a pinch I will microwave it. Give it a try and see if the difference is worth it for you! Corey — I have tried both methods for cooking the squash.

When you don't try to convince yourself it's something that it's not, you're not disappointed, as you've pointed out. Onto my question: Ordinarily I slice it in half and remove seeds, then microwave facedown in a sealed dish with a tablespoon of water. Does roasting it make the flavor more special, as I would assume it would? I’ve used spaghetti squash regularly with marinara, knowing full well it’s a veggie.

I loved it and I've already been asked to make it again soon! The receipe was easy to follow and thanks for the heads up on watching the nuts carefully while toasting. I didn't have any pine nuts on hand so I substituted slivered almonds and that seemed to work fine. While mine did not look as lovely as your photos….it tasted fantastic!
