Spaghetti Squash Soup in bowl with breadIt's very common to use spaghetti squash as replacement for pasta. You've probably seen many spaghetti and lasagna recipes using it. How about using it to replace the noodles in your soup? This is a great way to use up your fall harvest of the delicious squash. Simmering it brings out the flavour of the squash into the soup, and the beautiful strands become the noodles to this hearty dish.

Steps:

  1. Split squash in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds. Place halves flesh-side down on a plate with a bit of water and microwave for 10 minutes. Allow to cool a bit then fork out the strands. Set aside.

  11. Add stock and water. Reserve a couple sprigs of the chopped parsley for serving, then dump the rest in the pot. Bring to a boil, lower to a simmer, cover and cook for 20 minutes. Serve in bowls topped with some parsley. I like to serve it with thinly sliced crusty bread.
