Yield: 8 servings
Source: "The Complete Diabetes Prevention Plan"

INGREDIENTS
- 2-1/4 to 2-1/2 pound spaghetti squash
- 2 tablespoons margarine or butter
- 1-1/2 tablespoons honey

DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

Rinse the squash, cut it in half lengthwise and scoop out
the seeds. Coat a large baking sheet with cooking spray
and lay the squash halves, cut side down, on the sheet.
Bake for about 45 minutes, until the squash can
be easily pierced with a fork.

Place the margarine or butter and honey in a microwave safe
dish, cover loosely, and microwave at high power for about
30 seconds, until the margarine or butter is melted.

Cut each squash half into quarters and use a fork to
fluff the center of each piece of squash slightly.
Stir the honey mixture and drizzle about 1-1/4 teaspoons
of the mixture over each piece of squash. Serve hot.
