Roasted Spaghetti Squash with Sicilian Pesto
This Roasted Spaghetti Squash with Sicilian Pesto is an easy and healthy recipe that is hearty enough for a main dish, or can be served as a side dish. It’s hard to believe that only three ingredients can create such great flavor. My method for roasting spaghetti squash is quite simple and brings out its natural sweetness. The Sicilian Pesto Sauce is garlicky, bright, and slightly spicy with tomatoes, a touch of lemon zest, and lots of fresh herbs. When combined they are a perfect match, resulting in a nutritious bite with huge flavor!
