EASY HEALTHFUL GINGERED SPAGHETTI SQUASH

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees Farenheit.
• Cut the spaghetti squash in half and clean out seeds.
• Do not peel, do not chop.
• Simply mix the minced ginger with the warmed honey or maple syrup (I prefer the honey) and spread generously on each cleaned out half of the squash.
• Bake uncovered, cut side up on a cookie sheet in the center of the oven for 20-30 minutes or until it becomes slightly golden, but not burned.
• Remove from oven and using a fork, scrape out the squash in"spaghetti strands" onto a serving plate.
• If you are feeling decadent or entertaining, you can add a small dollop of butter on the very top, but it should taste great without.
• Bon appetit!
