Pesto Pine Nut Spaghetti Squash

I'm sure it comes as no surprise that I love spaghetti squash, if you follow my blog. Cook the squash according to my directions here. Then, mix the squash with your favorite pesto sauce. I made some with fresh herbs from my garden. 
You can use whatever you grow: oregano, parsley, basil, cilantro...and mix it up with minced garlic, olive oil, and Parmesan cheese in a food processor until you have a thin paste. You can add spinach or arugula as well. Either add the sauce and mix into the squash or do it in a separate bowl and then scoop it back into the squash to make a bowl. Top with pine nuts, some shredded or Parmesan cheese, and bake in a 350 degree oven for 10-15 minutes, until cheese is melted.
