Rainbow Pepper Spaghetti Squash Recipe, Vegan Gluten Free

May 5, 2015 By Colleen 11 Comments

I'd love it if you'd share this post:

Have you had spaghetti squash?  While it tastes fantastic roasted, it comes out great in the microwave too which makes it perfect for when it’s too hot out to turn on the oven.  This Rainbow Pepper Spaghetti Squash can be made in under 20 minutes if you microwave your spaghetti squash.  It’s a perfect weeknight supper.

Rainbow Pepper Spaghetti Squash Recipe

To cook spaghetti squash in the microwave, simply pierce all over with a fork and microwave on high for about 2-3 minutes per pound.  Once it’s cool enough to handle, cut in half, scoop out seeds and shred into “spaghetti”.
