This recipe was easy and yummy. Next time I think I'll just make it in a casserole dish, my pie pan wasn't deep enough so it got a little messy.

This was a great recipe for spaghetti squash, even my husband agrees it's a make again dish. I used garden chunky sauce, which added more veggie to it, and extra cheese! Even better re-heated the next day, almost like a veggie lassagna.

I have a question, did anyone have the squash explode, mine did, at 9 1/2 minutes. It weighed 2.9 # which I thought was close to the listed 3#. I looked at it at 9 min and then kabluee, yes I poked it with a fork many times. Otherwise it was good, except for the mess in the micro.

Made this dish, my family really liked it, even my children. I added the garlic to my meat while I was browning it. I don't know if this makes a difference or not. This is a very good and easy spaghetti squash recipe!

Needed longer baking time as squash was not completely set up. I used ground turkey instead of beef. My husband said he would like more meat so will use a pound next time.

I am going to make this meatless by adding the Boca crumbles instead of ground beef. I'll also add garlic, mushrooms and onions. Will let you know how it turns out.

Very Yummy! I am always trying to find healthy alternatives to the unhealthy foods my husband and I loved as children. This was great! He really liked it. A little extra cheese makes it a lot yummier!!

We really liked this recipe! I cooked some diced onion along with the ground beef, and I added some pesto to the sauce. It turned out very well.

Good recipe.. even better as leftovers since the flavours seemed to 'sink in' more the next day.

This recipe was great alternative to regular spaghetti. I loved how we eating a vegetable instead of pasta. I did have to adjust the cooking times though. My squash busted open in the microwave around the 10 minute mark. Also my cheese was already starting to brown around the 20 min. mark in the oven. It was definitely done in 20 mins. We will definitely make this again.
