1. Preheat the oven to 400.
2. Carefully slice your spaghetti squash in half.
Scoop out the seeds and flip them cut side
down on a large microwave safe plate.
4. Add a little water to the bottom of the plate
(to create steam) and microwave on high for 10 minutes.
5. In a small casserole dish (6 X 8) add
a thin layer of tomato sauce to the bottom.
Combine the rest of the tomato sauce with the ricotta
cheese.
6. Once the spaghetti squash is done in the microwave,
Scoop out the insides with a folk. (It‛ll make little
“strands”) but be careful, it‛ll be hot!
7. Then layer in spaghetti squash over the sauce.
8. Top with sauce and repeat with spaghetti squash.
9. Cover the whole pan with mozzarella cheese and cover
with aluminum foil.

and sprinkle over top!
