The Crockpot, or Slow-Cooker, is one of the best time saving appliances in the kitchen.
It’s great because all you have to do is fill it and turn it on. Hours later, you come
home to a house filled with wonderful smells and dinner is ready for the table!
Come learn what a Crockpot can do to make your life easier.

FALL SQUASH SEASON
Scrape “spaghetti” out with fork
Spaghetti
Squash
Recipe
Servings:4
Prep Time: 15mins
Cook Time: 50mins
Ingredients:
1 spaghetti squash
1 head garlic
Salt and pepper
olive oil
Recipe and nutrition infor-
mation come from http://
low-cholesterol.food.com.
1. Preheat oven to 350-375.
2. Cut raw spaghetti squash in half, scoop out the seeds with a spoon.
3. Place halves onto an oven safe cooking dish face up.
4. Thinly slice garlic and spread garlic into the bowl like shape of the squash, salt
and pepper vigorously, drizzle with olive oil
6. Place onto the upper middle rack of the oven for about 30-40 minutes. (You
will know it is ready when the squash separates with little resistance from the skin).
7. Remove from oven, and set aside to cool for at least 20 minutes.
8. Use a fork to scoop and separate squash strands.
9. And any other ingredients you like. Herbs, cheese, veggies, meat, olives are all
excellent additions to this dish, the list is endless.
NOTE: If you use a loose tomato based sauce do not add it immediately to the
squash; this makes the squash runny, mushy, and unpalatable. Instead garnish the
dish with a little bit of sauce atop the squash, and then offer more sauce on the
side, in a separate dish.
