If the squash is big, you might want to cover the top to keep it from drying out. The squash is done, when the inside can be removed and looks like spaghetti. Alternately I have tried to steam it instead. This is a lot faster. 10 - 20 minutes is enough.If you steam it too long it gets mushy, but still tastes good. I like the taste of the baked version better. I eat it with home made quasi-bolognese sauce: (Another recipe from Valerie's Makeshift Kitchen) Mix ground beef, some REAL tomato (chopped), a little bacon (chopped), one chopped onion, and spices, and some tomatoe puree if you like, and cook in frying pan til done. (Yes, I have made this several times, and my friends are still alive and well) valerie __ /--\ | | /------\ <|-|--|-|> |-|--|-| <\-|--|-/> -- --- V
