Diced tomatoes
Sliced scallions
Sliced avocado

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.
Place the halved spaghetti squashes cut side up and brush the interior with olive oil. Sprinkle with cumin, salt, and pepper. Bake for 35-45 minutes, or until a knife easily pierces the exterior.
