Do you know how to cook spaghetti squash? Today, I'm sharing the easiest methods, including my favorite baked spaghetti squash. I'm also showing you how to cut spaghetti squash and how to cook spaghetti squash whole without cutting it raw.

Spaghetti squash is a great way to enjoy noodles without the carbs and empty calories found in classic pasta. The flavor can be nutty, but is mostly neutral and extremely versatile. It's budget-friendly and approved for most popular diets. When cooked, it resembles strands of thin spaghetti, hence the name. Once you know how to cook spaghetti squash, you have a nutritious noodle base for countless entrees.

Safety tips for cutting spaghetti squash

There's no effortless way to cut raw spaghetti squash. The hard skin and firm flesh makes it difficult and potentially dangerous.

Tip #1: Place the squash on a folded, thick kitchen towel over a cutting board to prevent the squash rolling while it's being cut.

Tip #2: Instead of forcing the knife through spaghetti squash, use a firm, slight rocking motion to cut through a little a time.

How to cut spaghetti squash two ways

1. Cut crosswise (across the center for longer noodles)

Crosswise is the best way to cut spaghetti squash to get longer noodles and it's easier than cutting lengthwise. Imagine the squash stem as a north pole and the center perimeter as an equator. Lay the squash sideways on a folded towel to help secure it. Grip the knife firmly and rock it in small movements through the 'equator', eventually (and safely) moving the knife through the squash. Never use force.

2. Cut lengthwise (from stem to stem for shorter noodles)

This is my least favorite way to cut raw spaghetti squash because it's awkward, tricky, and cumbersome. If you prefer this method, I find the easiest way is to first pierce the squash with a paring knife forming a dotted line around around the whole squash. This creates a guide AND promotes easier penetration for a bigger knife to finish the job.

How to cook spaghetti squash (3 ways)

Visit recipe card below πŸ‘‡πŸΌ for printable amounts and instructions

1. Roasted or baked spaghetti squash halves - Cut in half, remove seeds, add oil, salt, and pepper, and bake flesh side down 40-60 minutes.

2. Roasted or baked spaghetti squash WHOLE - Pierce the skin with a sharp knife and bake squash whole. After 20 minutes, cut the squash in half and continue baking until it's fork tender.

3. Microwave spaghetti squash whole - Pierce skin in several places with a paring knife. Microwave on HIGH in 5 minute intervals until a knife easily penetrates into skin through flesh. Cut in half, remove seeds, and use a fork to separate the noodles from the skin.

How to know when spaghetti squash is done cooking

There are two ways to know when spaghetti squash is done no matter how it's cooked:

  1. The skin is easily and effortlessly penetrated with a knife or fork.
  2. The noodles separate effortlessly with a fork.

How to serve spaghetti squash

Food Lover's Companion refers to spaghetti squash as vegetable pasta and it does an excellent job of being exactly that. Because of that, don't expect to trick anyone into thinking it's pasta, because it's not. The good news is that it's a low carb, low calorie alternative to pasta, and delicious no matter how you serve it. So, you can serve it with any kind of sauce, exactly like you would serve pasta.

Also, you can meal prep spaghetti squash and add it to countless recipes! This is how I frequently use cooked spaghetti squash. We love to add it to my Thai Zucchini Noodles or my Crustless Quiche Casserole.

Roasted spaghetti squash toppings

  • Arugula Pesto
  • Thai Peanut Sauce
  • Easy Homemade Tomato Sauce Recipe
  • Hidden Veggie Marinara Sauce
  • Olive oil drizzle, Parmesan cheese, salt and pepper

Recommended tools

  • chef's knife and cutting board
  • portion scoop (not required, but great for scooping out squash seeds)
  • baking dish or baking sheet

    Hello, from beautiful Kingston, Ontario, Canada! Just tried this method of baking a spaghetti squash, and it's a beaut! I like spaghetti squash, and the last time I'd cut one open, I also cut open my hand (not too deeply, thank goodness). So, thank you, Google, for enabling me to stumble across your post today! Baked a closed squash at 375 Fahrenheit for an hour, let it cool, cut it open, seasoned it liberally (with salt, garlic powder, Italiano spice, and Parmesan and Herbs seasoning, as well as a little drizzle of olive oil), and baked it for another half-hour. Delicious!! Better than it was, when I used to cut one open. This is now my go-to spaghetti squash recipe! Thanks!

    We love spaghetti squash and we've done it both the oven method and the microwave way. Luckily, it's Hubby who gets out his trusty saber (it seems that big) to cut through the tough skin. I do prefer it in the oven. I like the strands to be a bit dryer than when the squash is microwaved. I haven't baked it whole, though. I'll have to try your method.

    Love the array of tips you have here. I'm always a sucker for a good tutorial. I'm with you re: the microwave too. I have visions of messy, messy explosions - and everything is better with the little toasty brown bits that you get from the oven. Honestly I can't remember the last time I had a spaghetti squash (I tend to default to firm-fleshed varieties), but I've been thinking more and more about doing some experimenting again. This might be the push I need. Cheers!

    I've always cooked my spaghetti squash in the oven, but I've never thought to remove it during baking and returning it after it has been cut. This is so brilliant for so many reasons. I love that it's easier to tell if the spaghetti squash is done, that it helps toast up the squash and gives it a better texture. This is totally a game changer!

    This is a great tutorial. (I can say that with confidence because this is exactly how I cook spaghetti squash, haha πŸ˜‰ )

    Cutting raw squash really IS dangerous! Like, get-ready-to-say-goodbye-to-one-of-your-fingers kind of dangerous. I haven't lost ay fingers, but I've come close. So I was pretty quick to learn these techniques you've touched on. Spaghetti squash is so so so good, and it would be a shame for people to miss out on it just because it seems like a tedious thing to prep!

    On 20 Nov 2018, my daughter tried to cut open a squash to bake for dinner and got the knife stuck. In attempting to remove it she yanked it back into her eye!! Fortunately after rushing in for immediate eye surgery and a later laser treatment her eye is ok and vision back to normal. She used a coping saw later to complete the task. Your post is a big blessing to us all! Thank you!

    Traci -- this is such a useful post! Cutting raw squash has always been a challenge for me. Obviously there's the danger in forcing the knife through the squash -- but since I'm also on the petite side, I sometimes have to stand on a step stool to get leverage. I never knew you could cook the squash whole... No more life-risking dinners! I thank you. My digits thank you!

    If you cut the squash in half crossways after baking you will get nice long strands like spaghetti because they wrap around the inside of the rind as they grow in that direction. Cutting in half long ways cuts them in half.

    I've cooked a few spaghetti squashes in the past few weeks and they ARE a beast to cut sometimes. They're sometimes like a coconut! I've never baked it twice to avoid this, so great tip! I have also almost exploded a squash in the microwave - apparently if you don't pierce it enough, it's still acts like a hot missile.

      Haha, so funny you should ask, Darlene...as I have been wanting to create another post that would answer that very question. Yes, I have baked acorn, butternut, and pumpkin using the same instructions. Please realize you may have to adjust your timing a little to accommodate sizes; i.e., less time for smaller, more time for bigger, etc.

      Hope that helps...thanks for the great question!
