a very good thing indeed

Directions

1. Day One: Prepare the spaghetti squash by cutting it into 4 pieces, roasting in pie plates or baking dishes, insides down. Roast at 350 with skin on, deseeded and rubbed with a little olive oil, sea salt and pepper. I roasted a fairly large one recently for about 30 mins until the insides began to peel away with a fork like spaghetti strands.
2. I like to refrigerate my cooked squash overnight, cooled and packed in ziplock bags with the skin and strands intact. I find it has a better texture when its reheated!
3. Day Two: Remove the squash from the fridge. Tear out the strands with a fork, piling them into a large cake pan. Preheat the oven to 370. Once the strands are spread out in the large pan, drizzle with a little oil, salt and pepper. Bake in the oven for 10-15 minutes while you prepare the sauce.
4. Wash the arugula and place in a mixing bowl. Dress with a little olive oil, sea salt and freshly cracked pepper. Squeeze 1/4 of the lemon over it and stir. Set aside.
5. The Sauce: Dice your onion and garlic. Saute in individual little frying pans (the size you would make an omelette in, one per person) in a little olive oil, salt and pepper. Saute gently until translucent. Chop your tomatoes while the onions cook, if using grape tomatoes, in half is fine.
6. Add the tomatoes and saute, letting them get really juicy in the pan, you can add a touch of water to them. After they've started to form a fresh style sauce, add the white wine over medium high heat and let it reduce a little. Add a little more oil and a little squeeze of lemon to each frying pan. Add in your basil and stir through once slowly. Add a quarter of the goat's cheese packet to each frying pan of sauce. Stir to incorporate into a rose sauce. Remove the pan of squash from the oven. Add 1/4 of the squash to each pan of sauce. Do not stir.
7. Drizzle a little oil over each mound of squash. The pan heat should be on medium. Grate roughly 1/4 cup of pecorino over each mound. Allow the cheese enough time to melt slightly. Give each pan of squash and sauce one loose stir that does not evenly incorporate the sauce over the squash. Empty each little pan into its own bowl for eating -- large soup bowls or udon bowls are good size for this.
8. Top each bowl of squash/sauce with a big handful of the arugula you set aside earlier. Grate a bit more pecorino on top of it, a little drizzle of oil, and a ton of fresh cracked pepper. Serve immediately. COMPLICATED RECIPE BUT WORTH IT!!! :)
