Ingredients
Use organic ingredients whenever possible

1 medium squash
1-2 tsp olive oil
1 large clove of garlic
1/2 cup raw cashews
1/4 cup raw pumpkin seeds
Fresh basil leaves 2 cups
1 tsp lemon zest
Juice 1 lemon
1/4 tsp
Sea salt

More to Taste

1/4 cup olive oil
UTENSIL
Food processor

Method
Spaghetti Squash Directions
Pre-heat the oven to 200degC (400degF).
Cut the squash in half, top and bottom.
Then, cut the squash in two lengthways.
Use a spoon to scrape off all the seeds and stringy meat. Brush a little extra virgin oil on the flesh of the spaghetti and place it cut-side down onto a baking sheet lined with foil.
Roast for 30-40 minutes, or until the meat is completely cooked and tender to the touch. Rest the meat for at least 15 minutes, or until it is cool enough to handle.
Start at one end of the “noodles” and scrape them out in lengthwise direction using a fork. Voila! Noodles.
Pesto Directions
Garlic should be added to the food processor and minced.
Add basil, cashews and pumpkin seeds.
Slowly pour olive oil into the food processor through the top spout. Stop the food processor and clean down the sides.
Continue processing until smooth. Add a little more olive oil if needed. If you plan to use the pesto as a sauce, you can add up to 1/4 cup water.
All together
Transfer the warm noodles into a large bowl.
Add pesto to the pasta and gently mix until well combined.
