Spaghetti Squash & Pesto - a Healthy Lunch for Adults

For the most part, I've focused on healthy lunches for kids. But what about the rest of us? We need healthy lunches too! Plus, it'd be helpful if the lunches were premade, appealing, portable, appetizing, ready-to-go ... I could go on. Here's one of my current favs!
Spaghetti Squash with a dollop of pesto.
Easy, nutritious, affordable and definitely packable.

To make this delicious lunch entree:
(1) you'll need a spaghetti squash (obviously), a cutting board, a sharp knife, a spoon and fork (not pictured) and a baking dish.
(2) Cut the squash in half lengthwise, and scrape out the seeds.
(3) Next place the squash cut-side-down in the baking dish, add a little water, and cover with plastic wrap.
(4) Microwave about 10-12 minutes, depending on the size of your squash.

Once the squash is cooked, carefully remove the plastic wrap, and lift out the squash half using an oven mitt. It's gonna be HOT!

Here comes the fun part: with a fork, scrape the flesh of the squash. It will naturally shred into spaghetti-like strands!

Throw the spaghetti squash strands into a bowl, and top with a bit of butter, cheese or sauce. I used a few dollops of homemade pesto. Delicious! And so good for you!

If you're packing your lunch to go, just put it into a Rubbermaid-type container, and reheat once lunchtime rolls around. I'll bet you'll be the envy of the lunchroom!
