Slice the ends off of the spaghetti squash using a sharp knife. Stand the spaghetti squash on one of the flat ends and carefully slice down the middle. Use a large spoon to scoop out the seeds.
Place the squash cut side up and brush each half with 1 teaspoon of olive oil. Season with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Place the squash in the air fryer and close the lid. Set the temperature to 350° F and set the timer for 20 minutes.
Serve the air fried spaghetti squash with spaghetti sauce For a vegetarian option, sprinkle with parmesan cheese, and fluff, and serve!
Notes
Check for doneness by pricking the flesh with a fork. If there is no resistance and the fork can easily pierce the flesh, then it's ready.
Don't toss out the seeds, roast them instead. Check out my spicy pumpkin seeds post for some seasoning ideas!
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
