Spaghetti squash is all the rage right now in the world of culinary nutrition. Sure, it is nutritious, but let's face it: these rock-hard beasts aren't the easiest vegetable to slice into, and more often than not, you end up with short watery strands that barely resemble "spaghetti".

But before your clients completely give up on spaghetti squash forever, we have a great tip you can share with them.

How To Slice & Prepare Spaghetti Squash:

The trick to getting long, spaghetti-like noodles is to slice your spaghetti squash into rings through its belly or waist. This is because the strands of the spaghetti squash do not run from one end of the squash to the other. Instead, the strands run in a circular formation. Cutting the squash across its waist leaves the noodles fully intact. On the other hand, when you slice the spaghetti squash in half from end-to-end, you are essentially cutting the noodles in half, and ain't no one got time for short noodles.

Once you've sliced the squash into rings, you can scoop out the seeds.

You might be wondering why I suggest cutting the squash into rings, instead of simply slicing it in half. While both methods work, slicing it into rings better allows the liquid from within the squash to steam off during the cooking process, so you don't end up with super watery noodles.

Once it is sliced, you can cook the spaghetti squash in the oven, Instant Pot, microwave or slow cooker.
