LORRAINES FAMOUS SPAGHETTI RING FRUIT SALAD



Lorraines Famous Spaghetti Ring Fruit Salad image

the grand children always want my mother in law to make this salad when they visit. It is an update on an OLD recipe that calls for a cooked dressing --she has gone modern and uses the microwave and add cool whip instead of making her own whipped cream.She makes about a triple batch in a big tupperware bowl and keeps the leftovers in the fridge -- be sure to stir leftovers and eat with in about a day. Spaghetti rings are a little hard to find where I shop, You could probably substitute something like alphabet shapes or even fine spaghetti cut in tiny pieces but the rings are the best.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe spaghetti squash. A ripe spaghetti squash will have a deep yellow or orange color and a firm, heavy feel. Avoid spaghetti squash that is bruised or has soft spots.
  • Cook the spaghetti squash properly. The best way to cook spaghetti squash is to roast it in the oven. This will help to bring out its natural sweetness and flavor. To roast spaghetti squash, preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Cut the spaghetti squash in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds. Drizzle the squash with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Place the squash cut-side up on a baking sheet and roast for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until the squash is tender and easily pierced with a fork.
  • Use a fork to scrape the squash into spaghetti-like strands. Once the spaghetti squash is cooked, use a fork to scrape the flesh into spaghetti-like strands. You can also use a vegetable spiralizer to create spaghetti squash noodles.
  • Add your favorite toppings. Spaghetti squash is a versatile dish that can be topped with a variety of ingredients. Some popular toppings include tomato sauce, pesto, grilled chicken, shrimp, and vegetables.

Conclusion:

Spaghetti squash is a delicious and healthy alternative to pasta. It is a good source of fiber, vitamins, and minerals. Spaghetti squash can be used in a variety of dishes, including salads, soups, and casseroles. With its mild flavor and spaghetti-like texture, spaghetti squash is a great way to add more vegetables to your diet.
