Instructions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
Slice squash in half and scoop out the seeds. Place in a roasting pan, flesh-side down and cook for 30-45 minutes. The squash is done when it is tender.
Remove from oven and allow to cool.
Using a fork, gently pull the flesh away from the peel. The strands wrap around the squash horizontally - so "rake" your fork in the same direction as the strands to make the longest "noodles."
In a large bowl, place the squash noodles and add remaining vegetables and herbs. Top with Lemon Basil Dressing and serve.
