I like using Spaghetti Squash for my “noodles”… and another way I love to top them is with white clam sauce… I make this clam sauce with olive oil, white wine, clams, clam juice, garlic, shallots, parsley & maybe some oysters as well – so delicious!

Excellent use of squash. I used your noodle making method, along with some meandering around the kitchen to make a southwest inspired sauce to top it off with. I mentioned this post with a link in my blog as to share this brilliant idea.

Hi Erin,

No, butternut and other winter squash and gourds are very hard and have thick skin, so you need a different recipe. If you’d like to use winter squash try a spaghetti squash which can be roasted and scraped into thin noodle-like strands. I do not have a recipe for that yet on Summer Tomato but I will try it this winter.

Erin
