Enhance the Sauce:
- Use fresh Roma tomatoes for sweeter and more flavorful sauce.
- Sauté the tomatoes in olive oil with garlic and onions for a richer base.
- Add a splash of red wine or vegetable broth for depth of flavor.
- Season the sauce with Italian herbs such as oregano, basil, and thyme.
- Consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes for a subtle kick.
Roast the Squash:
- Prick the squash with a fork before roasting to prevent it from exploding.
- Roast the squash at a slightly higher temperature (425-450°F) for a crispier exterior.
- Brush the squash with olive oil and seasonings before roasting to enhance flavor.
- Allow the squash to cool slightly before scraping it to prevent it from breaking apart.
Incorporate Extra Ingredients:
- Add sautéed mushrooms, bell peppers, or onions to the sauce for extra texture and flavor.
- Sprinkle grated Parmesan or mozzarella cheese over the squash before baking for a cheesy topping.
- Top with roasted pine nuts or chopped walnuts for a crunchy element.
Presentation:
- Serve the spaghetti squash in a bowl with the tomato basil sauce spooned over it.
- Garnish with fresh basil leaves or parsley for a pop of color and flavor.
- Pair with a side salad or garlic bread for a complete meal.
Other Tips:
- If you don’t have spaghetti squash, you can substitute with zucchini or yellow squash.
- Use a mandoline slicer to cut the squash into uniform “spaghetti” strands.
- To save time, use store-bought tomato sauce instead of making it from scratch.
