Nov 16Table Talk: Spaghetti Squash

Are y’all familiar with spaghetti squash? I had eaten it a few times when I was younger, but had never made it myself. That all changed recently when I saw a tempting pile at the grocery store and decided it would be a healthy, filling dish to try preparing. And friends, I was not disappointed. It’s super easy and has a delicious, buttery flavor. Enjoy.
