Spaghetti squash salad with lemon dressing

4 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
Salt
3 pounds Spaghetti squash, halved lengthwise, seeds
Scraped out
½ teaspoon Finely grated lemon zest
3 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
2 teaspoons Olive oil

Directions

Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add salt and the spaghetti squash and boil until slightly tender but still crunchy, about 8 minutes. Remove the squash with tongs and let cool slightly.

Using a fork, scrape the squash to loosen and separate the strands, keeping them as long and as intact as possible. Scrape the squash strands into a large bowl, cover and refrigerate until thoroughly chilled or up to 1 day.

In a small bowl, combine the lemon zest, lemon juice, olive oil and ¾ teaspoon salt. Just before serving, pour the dressing over the squash and toss well.
