Spaghetti [Squash] - 10 Meals

1 Larger spaghetti squash, halved, gutted

Olive Oil

Garlic Salt

1 Jar of spaghetti squash

Cut spaghetti squash in half (carefully), scoop out the guts, place open side up on a baking sheet. Slather with olive oil and garlic salt. Roast at 400 degrees for about an hour. Let squash cool slightly before using a fork to comb out the spaghetti squash. To avoid mushy spaghetti, comb and fluff the squash before you scrape it out of the shell.

Divide into 10 containers - haven’t tested freezing yet, but I’m going to.

Combine all ingredients into a food processor, blend until smoothish.

The Quiet World BY JEFFREY MCDANIEL In an effort to get people to look into each other’s eyes more, and also to appease the mutes, the government has decided to allot each person exactly one hundred and sixty-seven words, per day. When the phone rings, I put it to my ear without saying hello. In the restaurant I point at chicken noodle soup. I am adjusting well to the new way. Late at night, I call my long distance lover, proudly say I only used fifty-nine today. I saved the rest for you. When she doesn’t respond, I know she’s used up all her words, so I slowly whisper I love you thirty-two and a third times. After that, we just sit on the line and listen to each other breathe.
