How to Make Bacon Spaghetti Squash
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Cut spaghetti squash in half lengthwise and scoop out seeds.
- Place cut-side down on a baking sheet and bake for 40-50 minutes, or until easily pierced with a fork.
- While the squash is baking, cook bacon until crispy. Remove bacon from pan, reserving 2 tablespoons of bacon grease.
- Once the squash is cooked, let it cool slightly. Use a fork to scrape the flesh into spaghetti-like strands.
- In a large bowl, toss the spaghetti squash with the reserved bacon grease, crumbled bacon, salt, and pepper.
- Serve immediately and garnish with extra bacon and parmesan cheese (optional).
