This is an excellent way to get some squash in your diet in a bit of a different way. Using generous amounts of parsley combined with this delicious lemon caper sauce gives it a healthy and fresh kick.
I like making recipes that use raw ingredients for their full nutritional power, but this sauce would also be beautiful with roasted garlic.

Ingredients
- 1 spaghetti squash, halved and roasted
- 1 lemon, zested and juiced
- 1 handful of parsley, chopped
- 2 Tbsp capers
- 1 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 green onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 10 sundried tomatoes, soaked and chopped
- 1-2 tsp sea salt
- Toasted pumpkin seeds, garnish
Directions
- Cut your spaghetti squash in half lengthwise, poke some holes in the flesh, then rub with a small amount of olive oil and then a sprinkle of sea salt. Place the halves face up on a baking dish and put in the oven at 350 degrees F for about 30 minutes.
- While the squash is roasting, put the rest of the ingredients in a bowl and whisk to combine. If you like, you can put this in a food processor for a few seconds to make more of a paste.
- Once the squash is finished, scoop the flesh into a bowl and get it separated into strands. Toss with the sauce, and serve topped with some toasted pumpkin seeds.
