Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 medium spaghetti squash (about 2 to 3 pounds)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and black pepper

Method
 

  1. Halve the squash lengthwise and scoop out the seeds and stringy bits.
  2. Brush the cut sides with the olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and place cut-side down in the air fryer basket. Cook at 370°F for 15 minutes.
  3. Flip the halves cut-side up, then cook another 5 to 8 minutes until a fork pierces the thickest part easily.
  4. Let the squash cool for 5 minutes, then scrape the flesh with a fork into strands. Taste, adjust salt, and serve.

Notes

Let the squash rest a few minutes after cooking so it is easier to handle. This recipe makes a great make-ahead base for meal prep; store the plain strands and reheat with sauce another night.
