This was delicious. I've never done a sweet spaghetti squash recipe so I was nervous but it turned out great. I only had half a squash so I cut the recipe in half and baked in a loaf pan. My friend laments that I'm always adding cheese to her beloved traditional foods and this was no exception: it was wonderful with cream cheese! ;-) Thanks for sharing.
