Vegetable Spaghetti Squash

Vegetable Spaghetti Squash is a unique winter squash variety prized for its stringy, pasta-like flesh that becomes tender and separates into strands when cooked. These oblong fruits have smooth, pale yellow skin and typically weigh 4–8 pounds. They mature in about 85–100 days and store well for months after harvest. Spaghetti squash is an excellent low-carb alternative to traditional pasta, offering a mild, slightly sweet flavor that pairs perfectly with sauces and seasonings. Plants thrive in full sun and well-drained soil, producing vigorous vines that need plenty of space. Sow seeds after the danger of frost has passed, and harvest when the skin is hard and deep yellow. Packed with fiber, vitamins A and C, and antioxidants, this versatile squash is a healthy and delicious addition to any garden.
