What Is The Best Way To Cook Spaghetti Squash

I always just microwave my spaghetti squash because it is fast, easy and saves me from the possibility of chopping my fingers off. The downside is that the spaghetti quash retains the liquids. Something I overlook for the sake of convenience.

If you have the extra time and desire, oven roasted spaghetti squash is the better way to prepare this squash. Roasting upside down on a rack allows the squash to lose some of that extra moisture. The downside being you have to slice the spaghetti squash in half before cooking which is no small task.
