Spaghetti Squash with Ricotta Pesto
Ideal for gluten-free customers—or those who just love flavor—these spaghetti squash twirls skip the pasta and pump up the cheese.
3/4 C Markon First Crop Basil
3/4 C Markon First Crop Italian Parsley
1/2 C Parmesan cheese, grated
1/2 C hazelnuts
2 tsp. zest of Markon First Crop Lemons
1 tsp. kosher salt
1/4 tsp. black pepper
1/4 tsp. nutmeg
1 C Ricotta cheese
1 spaghetti squash, baked until soft
Place basil, parsley, Parmesan, zest, salt, and pepper into a food processor. Blend until smooth. Add Ricotta cheese and blend until just combined.
Using a fork, carefully scrape strands of squash into a large mixing bowl. Add pesto and carefully combine, being sure not to break squash strands. Using a fork, twirl mixture into mounds and place on serving plates (three per plate).
Garnish with more hazelnuts, Parmesan cheese, and herbs.
