Easiest way to prepare Spaghetti Squash

1. Wash your squash
2. Pierce it several times with a knife
3. Put it in the crockpot with 1 cup of water or broth
4. Cook on low for 4-6 hours
5. Remove from the crockpot- it will be hot so BE CAREFUL!!

Using pork sausage in Italian dishes like spaghetti or lasagna, gives it such a great flavor!
