Spaghetti squash bowls are my absolute favorite way to eat cooked spaghetti squash. Slice one large, or two small, spaghetti squash in half lengthwise. Brush the inside, cut sides of the spaghetti squash, with olive oil. Season the cut sides of the squash with salt, chili powder and cumin.

Instructions to make Mexican Spaghetti Squash Bowls:
  1. Preheat oven to 375° F.
  2. Cut squash in half lengthwise.
  3. With a spoon scrape out seeds and dark yellow strings that the seeds are attached to.
  4. Place squash face down on a foil lined rimmed baking sheet. (I always use a rimmed sheet so there is no chance of them sliding off sheet when taking in and out of oven) Bake for 40-45 min.
  5. While you squash is roasting remove kernels from corn cob. Place them in a bowl and add the rest of the ingredients except cheese.
  6. When your squash is ready remove from oven. (You can test them to see if they are ready by scraping the insides with a fork, if the "strings" come off easily, they are ready.)
  7. Let cool slightly so you can easily handle the squash.
  8. Remove inside "strings" leaving a about a 1/4 inch layer on shells.
  9. Add squash "strings" to the bowl with other ingredients and mix. (Taste to see if you need more salt)
  10. Place your mixture into squash shell. Sprinkle with cheese.
  11. Return to oven and cook for about 10-15 min or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

On the baking sheet, drizzle the halved spaghetti squash with olive oil. Rub the olive oil all over each of the halves, adding more if necessary. Spaghetti squash stuffed with ground turkey taco filling, pico de gallo and chopped avocado is a fun alternative on family taco night. This recipe is sure to please the kids (omit the spices if your children are sensitive to spices) and perfect for a family dinner.
