Tips:

  • Choose the right spaghetti squash: Look for a squash that is firm and has a deep yellow color. Avoid squash that is soft or has blemishes.
  • Cook the spaghetti squash properly: There are two ways to cook spaghetti squash: in the oven or in the microwave. To cook in the oven, preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Pierce the squash several times with a fork. Place the squash on a baking sheet and bake for 45-60 minutes, or until the squash is tender. To cook in the microwave, pierce the squash several times with a fork. Place the squash in a microwave-safe dish and cook on high for 10-12 minutes, or until the squash is tender.
  • Use a sharp knife to shred the spaghetti squash: A sharp knife will help you to create long, thin strands of spaghetti squash. You can also use a fork to shred the squash, but a knife will give you more control.
  • Season the spaghetti squash to taste: You can season the spaghetti squash with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, or any other desired spices.
  • Cook the turkey sausage: Cook the turkey sausage in a skillet over medium heat until browned. Drain the sausage and set aside.
  • Combine the spaghetti squash and turkey sausage: Combine the spaghetti squash and turkey sausage in a large bowl. Add the marinara sauce and stir to combine.
  • Serve the spaghetti squash: Serve the spaghetti squash immediately, topped with Parmesan cheese and fresh basil.
