The Best Keto Friendly Spaghetti Squash Simple recipe

I am so excited after trying for months to perfect the spaghetti squash, I finally discovered I was missing a very important step. Not sure about you guys, but I wasn’t feeling my spaghetti squash, I was eating it because it is good for our healthy but the taste wasn’t resonating with me, it was too mushy and sweet for my taste buds. I created The Best Keto Friendly Spaghetti Squash Simple recipe after following these easy steps. These easy steps below should be followed regardless of what recipe you use for your spaghetti squash.

Are you ready for the best spaghetti squash you have ever tasted?

Here we go!

Ingredients needed:

Spaghetti Squash
Himalayan salt

Directions:

Instead of cutting it half, you will cut it in rings, gut it, removing the seeds.
Lay it on a baking sheet and sprinkle with the salt. Leave it for 15 minutes, this will absorb all of the water. Once the 15 minutes have passed, take a paper towel and wipe off all of the excess moisture and salt. This will help the texture of the Spaghetti Squash, it will not be so mushy.

Now spread a bit of your favorite oil, I used coconut oil on top of the Spaghetti Squash and baked for 20 minutes at 400 degrees. Once baked allow to cool for 5 minutes. Then remove the skin and tear the strands with your hand, you should have long “pasta like” strands.
