Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 (3 pound) spaghetti squash
1 teaspoon olive oil
¼ teaspoon sea salt
⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
⅛ teaspoon smoked paprika

  • Using a sharp knife, make a dotted line lengthwise around the entire squash. Place whole squash in the microwave and cook on full power for 5 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and cut the squash in half lengthwise, using the dotted line as a guide. Wrap one half in plastic wrap and refrigerate for another use.
