If you have been following me, you know how much I love Spaghetti Squash! When I decided to go Paleo then AIP over 3 years ago, giving up pasta was really hard for me. Second to bread, spaghetti squash became a staple in our house. We have it at least once every 2 weeks, sometimes every week.
I wrote a post a while back on how to cook it the traditional way. Well, I was pressed for time recently & decided to cook one in my Instant Pot.
I will never cook one the old fashion way again! Easy Peasy!
Ingredients:
- 1 Spaghetti Squash
- 1 c. water
Tools:
Directions:
- Put 1 c. water in the bottom of the Instant Pot
- Put in steam rack that comes with the Instant Pot
- Put whole Spaghetti Squash on steam rack
- Put lid on & seal
- Set to manual for 20 min.
- When done, release pressure manually
- Let cool for a few minutes
- Remove spaghetti squash (I use the handles for the steam basket & lift out onto a plate)
- Let cool until able to cut in half
- remove seeds
- take fork & rake spaghetti squash from the sides into a bowl
