I plan to grow spaghetti squash this summer/fall, so I've been testing out lots of spaghetti squash recipes. So far this one is the BEST! My kids (ages 3 and 4) gobbled it up and would've had seconds, but my husband (a self-proclaimed "picky eater") had THREE helpings before the kids finished their first! For our little family of four, I split this recipe in half, freezing some for later. I basically followed the recipe exactly, other than adding a bunch more broccoli. Delicious! This will be a family favorite, I'm sure :)
