Italian Herbs and Cheese Spaghetti Squash

Italian Herbs and Cheese Spaghetti Squash is delicious and easy to prepare. It makes the perfect side dish, but could also be served as the main course. We are always looking for new side dishes and I keep seeing recipes for spaghetti squash. So, I got on the internet to find a recipe I could adapt to fit our taste (and the ingredients I had on-hand). I adapted a recipe from Healthy Recipes, and came up with this Italian Herbs and Cheese Spaghetti Squash. This is only the second time I have made spaghetti squash and I see many different recipes using this in my future. I think it is so cool that it looks a lot like pumpkin on the inside, and then you roast it and are able to shred it into this yumminess that looks like spaghetti. So neat!
