For a long time, I avoided cooking spaghetti squash. It’s delicious, but it’s also a pain in the neck. The skin of spaghetti squash is so solid, you basically need a chainsaw to cut through it. But, I heard of a trick, and decided to use it while I made Sausage Stuffed Spaghetti Squash.

The trick to cutting spaghetti squash is so simple. You microwave it.

Let me be honest with you. I didn’t think it would work. You can microwave boulders and then magically cut through them. But the rumor was you could microwave a spaghetti squash and instead a machete, a simple knife would cut through it.

Well, wouldn’t you know. That works.

Cut a small dashed line across the length of the spaghetti squash. Put the spaghetti squash on a paper plate.

Microwave it for three minutes on high, flip it, microwave it for another three minutes on high.

And honestly, just call yourself a magician or the World’s Strongest Human because you can now simply cut down that dashed line and the spaghetti squash will open.

A quick side note about spaghetti squash. It actually mimics pasta. The insides pulls out and have a very similar taste and texture to pasta. So, if you’re gluten-free or on Keto, this is a great dinner for you.
