Recipe from Emily Paulsen, Brun Ko Farm

1 spaghetti squash
3 cloves garlic

*Microwave: Pierce skin in several places with a fork or sharp knife. Microwave on high for about 12 minutes. Let stand for 5 minutes. Cut open carefully. It may still be steaming. Remove seeds and pulp.

*Bake: Heat oven to 375 degrees. Cut squash in half. Remove seeds and pulp. Place cut side down in a pan containing a small amount of water. Bake until tender, about 45 minutes.
