"When I overcooked spaghetti squash in an instant pot, I turned it into a tasty side dish that looked like buttery mashed potatoes and tasted like it."

ingredients

• 1 spaghetti squash, overcooked
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1 tablespoon dehydrated chives
• 1 teaspoon garlic salt
• 1⁄2 teaspoon onion powder
• 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
• 1⁄4 teaspoon pepper

directions

1. Take the pulp out of the spaghetti squash. Overcook to where it is mushy (8 minutes in an instant pot and allow a 4 minute natural release time). In the oven 375 at approximately 1 hour.
