So spaghetti squash is not a favorite of my boys but we get a lot of it. I found this recipe and thought it might be and option the boys would like. I thought they were great.....apparently the boys were not fans. Actually they are still sitting at the table while I write this trying to choke them down and using the "water trick" to eat them. The redeeming factor though is that Keith (who NEVER eats squash) actually ate them. So overall I think the recipe was good. Next time I would bake them in the oven at 450 for 20 minutes on parchment instead of frying them in a pan. I think they would get more evenly crunchy.
