Made this exactly as directed. First off, I didn’t realize how much moisture spaghetti squash held, took me a good 5 minutes to squeeze a majority of the water out. Baked an extra 2 minutes after the flip to get them nicely browned. Overall it was difficult to tell the difference from the potato version. Will make again.
