Instructions to make Mexican Spaghetti Squash Bowls:
- Preheat oven to 375° F.
- Cut squash in half lengthwise.
- With a spoon scrape out seeds and dark yellow strings that the seeds are attached to.
- Place squash face down on a foil lined rimmed baking sheet. (I always use a rimmed sheet so there is no chance of them sliding off sheet when taking in and out of oven) Bake for 40-45 min.
- While you squash is roasting remove kernels from corn cob. Place them in a bowl and add the rest of the ingredients except cheese.
- When your squash is ready remove from oven. (You can test them to see if they are ready by scraping the insides with a fork, if the "strings" come off easily, they are ready.)
- Let cool slightly so you can easily handle the squash.
- Remove inside "strings" leaving a about a 1/4 inch layer on shells.
- Add squash "strings" to the bowl with other ingredients and mix. (Taste to see if you need more salt)
- Place your mixture into squash shell. Sprinkle with cheese.
- Return to oven and cook for about 10-15 min or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
