    Our family loves spaghetti squash and have had it many ways, but this wasn't a hit. The butter sauce was too much, so the next time I tried it using olive oil instead, and the flavors still didn't seem to fit. Not a keeper.

    We have tried the recipe for Rachel Ray's spaghetti squash and this is hands down so much better. Roasting the squash gave it a great sweetness and flavor. The brown butter with the capers & lemon was perfect. You could easily adapt this to whatever veggies you had on hand too. Delicious!

    We love this recipe and have shared it with everyone who eats it with us. I've made it lots of times. I leave out the pepper (I don't like them and the zucchini (just because. I poke the squash with an ice pick all over and microwave it for 6 to 12 minutes depending on the size. I reduce the butter by 2 tablespoons, brown it, and then I add 2 TBS of the olive oil and the salt and pepper to the pan before I put the capers in. It helps to stop the butter cooking and lessens the splattering of the capers when you add them. I'm making it tonight for friends we are staying with in FL and didn't bring the recipe with me from NY. Had to come here to get it, and couldn't resist reading the reviews. Wonderfl stuff.

    I made the recipe as written, but, based on other's comments, used 2/3 the butter. I LOVE all the ingredients by themselves. I typically will add additional lemon juice to my portion of a dish because I like it so much, but these ingredients did not work together fjor me. Between the capers and the lemon juice it WAS to sour (never thought I'd say that about a dish. I'd have eaten it anyway with all those healthy ingredients, but the taste of the butter reminded me that it had some less-than-healthy ingredients. Also, this recipe probably makes 6 main dish servings and 18 side servings so plan accordingly.

    there are so many people in our "social circle" who don't like veggies...It is challenging at times to have a dinner party that will please the veggie lovers like my better half and i, and the others....Spaghetti squash, however, makes everyone rave about the flavor!! You can make it taste just like pasta, or if you roast it longer, it tastes more like a traditional squash! This is my go to. So glad others are enjoying it!!

    I can see how this recipe would be really awesome if adjusted a little, but I could only eat a few bites. It was SO rich, there was way too much butter (there's something I never thought I'd say!!. I think if I make this again I will cut the amount of butter in half because I just could not eat any of it. I threw away about 5 pounds of food, and that was disppointing because I love a good vegetable recipe.
