The edited clip of Jessica with the knife and the music was perfect... and then the callback to it later on in the episode had me rolling!!! 😂
When the Halloween music started playing with Jessica holding the knife, I laughed out loud!
OMG I learned how to prop my instant pot lid 7:19 MIND BLOWN how did I not know this?
Keep up the sorcery!
Thanks for the tip about microwaving for a few minutes before cutting. And here's a safety tip for cutting winter squashes: put them on a kitchen towel or rubber glove while cutting. This will help stop them from rolling out of your control.
Love the note on the calendar "do days exist???" Ha ha!
You inspired me to cook up a spaghetti squash I had sitting on the counter for a while (in the instant pot). It turned out exactly like you said, so perfect! It was too big to go in sideways, so I cut in half the other way and cooked one end. With just a tiny bit of encouragement, the whole thing slid right out of the skin! Thanks for your tips, and I always appreciate your authentic sincerity.
Thank you for continuing the videos! They help during this time so much. This looks delicious ❤️
Thank you for watching and enjoying our videos. 😀
Jessica, you can buy cute little silicone chimneys for the instapot online. They direct the steam in one direction so that you can release the pressure without worrying about burning yourself.
I’ve never cut my spaghetti squash before putting it in the instant pot. It cooks perfectly if you leave it whole! So much easier, too. 😊
Well I don’t know about this but I am definitely going to check it out. Thank you. But I will tell you that all squash seeds toasted are delicious. And you Kinda have to soak them in some water and salt just like pumpkin seeds. But if you were to do what you just said it would make them softer and moist. Then you could just put them in the toaster oven straight out of the Insta pot. Put a little seasoning on them or whatever your jam is.
I’m going to try all of this!!!!
How many minutes on Manual do you use to cook a whole one?
I have an IP and a spaghetti squash right now. Can’t wait to make this!! I never thought of the IP for this. Yay! Thanks. Super useful and funny video today. 😂
Jessica and Brian are both looking great!
Quick, simple and it looks dang tasty 😛👍💕
Do days exist??? OMG, I love it!
All squash seeds toasted are delicious. One of them actually taste like buttered popcorn but I can’t remember which one it was. I’m definitely going to try out the Insta pot spaghetti squash.
The fridge calendar! Too true.
From Instant Pot manual: "Do not cover or obstruct the steam release valve/handle and/or float valve with cloth or other objects. Obstructing the steam release valve/handle and/or float valve can create a safety issue and may cause injury." Just an FYI so nobody gets hurt.
I wonder if that means while cooking.
Yay fun 80’s music break!
Dance break!
Jessica you are so funny. I laughed out loud several times during this video. Brian I loved the shot with her and the knife and how you kept using it. Very funny.
Love you two
I usually just shred it with a fork right in the skin, it’s easier than trying to peel it. ❤️
Lol “wow that was dark” omg I laughed out loud for real 😂😂
LOL 😬😬😬
Same hahaha
Health Span Solution also has a recipe for Spaghetti Squash Puttanesca that’s really good!
Brian’s really looking thin
😍😍
I noticed that too. Good work man!
I need to start growing that squash here. Not available down under. 😢
Dawn Fleming I’m in Adelaide and have no trouble getting it!
I'll need to look harder.
We're in regional vic and can get it.
We also just finished a bumper crop which we've pre roasted, vacuum sealed and frozen.
We're also seed saving for next season.
Try your local farmers market or vegie co-op. They're still good to ewat and should be avail to purchase.
Also, that hot steam natural release is a convenient source for "sterilizing" anything that can take the heat. :)
Wow , that was dark......LOL LOL love you guys
I love using the instant pot for spaghetti squash.
If you cut it around the middle it’s easier to fit in the pot and supposedly you get longer spaghetti strands (like you said). It’s also easier to cut ...Jessica!
I never thought of having beans with spaghetti squash. 🤔 interesting!
So funny. .and it causes me to remember the recipe!!! You guys are original!!!
I actually got this book yesterday !! Can't wait to try the cheeze sauce. Dinner looks delish!!
You can also cut the spaghetti squash horizontally instead. I learned this recently. It is easier to cut and also keeps the "spaghetti" strands in tact so they are longer and more spaghetti like 😋
Haha okay, I just got to the part where you cut it horizontally and it didn't go well. 😂
Ah relief.. Glad you asked Brian to cut it. I was getting concerned for your hand Jessica Yikes that knife 🙂. 🥝🥝🥝
Squash in the instant pot has to be the best way to do this.
That knife shot!
Brian really had fun with that one. LOL.
I'm glad that I'm not the only one who has trouble getting the lid on the instant pot!
Every. dang. time. LOL.
I used to have trouble getting the lid on my Cuisinart. Part of the reason I don’t have it anymore, lol.
Looks good! I bet broccoli would be great in this.
Yummy!
I was thinking the same.
How ironic this moment happened exactly at 13:33.
😏😁
I really enjoy your channel.
Thank you for sharing.
Wow, as spaghetti squash is loaded with fiber and you added beans,Yikes , I would be on the toilet forever.Your videos are nice.I put my spaghetti squash in the I-Pot WHOLE with knife slits and put on manual for 23 minutes with about 2 inches of water on the silver trivet thing.Super easy to get seeds out too.
Easy Peasy Cheesy Sketti! Yum.
Oh. That looks so yummy! Gotta try it. Cheesy pasta is so satisfying :)
Jessica, your knife handeling makes me think Hitchcock ....😁
Trader joes sells an amazing salt free hot sauce! called "Chili pepper sauce" usually on the bottom shelve near the salsa!
I’ve never made spaghetti squash! But I make butternut squash all the time
I wonder if you could hand peel the squash before putting it into the insta pot? We have done this with butternut squash before.
:- )
LOL @ "Do days exist...???"
have you tried growing any of your seeds?
Y’all crack me up! I haven’t tried spaghetti squash with cheesy sauce yet, but I just received my copy of the Healthspan Solution and need try their cheese sauce.
Thank you for another video. I think with or without the "pretty" it looks good. I agree for the taco theme black beans would of been a better choice. Though, I wonder if baking it at the end to get a slight crust on top might per-say enhance it.
Oooh fancy baking at the end... I like it!
You might have been out of black beans...but I bet you have LOTS of chick peas still.
😂😂🤣
Don’t get rid of “all this stuff”!! Rinse off all the seeds and roast them.... they’re wonderful!
I keep them and roast them from time to time. It's just a question of if I want to go through the process of cleaning them and roasting them. 😀
Agreed! Sometimes we buy squash more for the seeds than the actual veggie.
Just wash the outside and put the squash in whole rather than risking cutting yourself. The pressure inside the pot prevents the squash from exploding. Once cooked, cut in half and scoop away the interior seeds and fibrous material. Easy peasy!
To get long strands .....
It’s Simple: Slice Your Squash Across the Waist
Getting the longest strands possible is all about how you cut the spaghetti squash, and the best way to do that is by slicing it across the waist. Crosswise, right across the middle of the squash - instead of from end to end.
If you take a minute to look at the inside of a spaghetti squash, it totally makes sense! The strands of the squash don’t run from one end of the squash to the other; they’re actually arranged in a circular formation around the interior, like lines of latitude around a globe. Cutting the squash across the waist keeps the whole strand intact, while slicing from end to end halves the strands.
I forget whether you eat peanuts or not? If you do - these squash noodles make yummy thai peanut sauce noodles. I always add broccoli slaw and extra shredded carrot. Trying to adjust my recipe to use peanut powder instead of peanut butter now
Have you ever used the chorizo tofu in this? I wonder how that would taste?
I usually cut my squash the other way. I use a fork to gently loosen the strands and get them out.
Hmm I don’t eat butternut squash and now I want to! 💛💛💛
I really want to try spaghetti squash. My eye say it takes like pasta, but I know it will probably taste like squash lol
Definitely sweeter, great with savoury toppings!!
It does not taste anything like pasta, but it is yummy!
If you cut the spaghetti squash the other direction, you get way nicer noodles. Someone told me that. I tried it and will pass it on.
Cute funny & yummmmmy oh, & simple !!!!
Yay! I made the first 15 mins
please tell me you tried this same recipe with the chorizo pinto beans.
cot it round scoop seeds out then pressure 7 min scoop out soaghetti
Are you guys using new lighting or camera equipment? This video looks extra clear. Really good recipe too!
You can put the whole squash in without cutting it. Much easier.. I have been doing that now..
spaghetti squash flesh grows round so cut round instead of long to get long noodles
I never thought of cooking sketti squash in the pressure cooker! Definitely going to do this. I'm also going to try doing the acorn squash I've had for a couple of months. I buy these hard shelled squashes and then put off cooking them because of the whole process of cutting, cooking and scooping. I think I'll add some vegan sausage to this dish. M-m-m....😋
don't need to cut it before putting it in the pot.
Bet broccoli would be good!
I have a question about cheesy sauces. I don't like the taste of nutritional yeast (I'm just strange that way). So which recipe would you recommend that I try? I'm okay with a small amount (a tablespoon or so), but much more than that and I find the sauce inedible. Thanks.

So much faster in the microwave. I poke mine 2-3 times on the sides and set my microwave for "potato"
Some microwaves have a button for "hard veg"potato". THEN I cut, clean out the seeds and shred.
Hi lovely Krocks! I have a question about your Dutch oven (shown on the stove; I'm in the process of choosing one to buy)....is that a Lodge 6 quart? or..? is the 6 quart large enough; are you happy with it? thanks so much!
We always roast our squash and pumpkin seeds w/ various spices... :- d
The Healthspan Solution's cheese sauce is delicious! I have made several others and did not like them. Had to throw them out. The Healthspan cheese sauce is a game changer for me.
Yea🥳 Jessica I love you ❤️ Sorry Brian 😆
Awww thanks Lula :D
💖
Chiiivesss yum
A spoon can be helpful to remove the peels. 🌈🌈
That calendar 🧐🧐🧐🧐🧐🧐
Jessica with the knife is creepy. 😆 looks delicious
Ya it’s so hard to cut those things open
You do not have to cut them first..Do it after.
Yummy cheesy sketi sauce
Obviously Brian has performing for audiences and now cameras for most of his life. Stage presence.
I do it without cutting it before. Much easier
Omg I'm so afraid of releasing the pressure too! I want to get one but I'm afraid actually. 😬😬🤫🤫
I’m terrified of the thing 😂😂
Hahahahah well at least we're in the same boat together. You've got a friend. 😊🤣😂
The evo plus has a diffuser and the button is a nice long way removed from the valve
You guys are so cute!
The things we do for food- aka burning our hands to get that good stuff out
I was trying to get done quickly so I could take photos before I lost the daylight. LOL.
You can hold it in a towel. There’s no need to suffer.
Where’s Peefy??
OMG... Brian CUT OUT THE PEEF SHOT!! He totally bombed the camera while Brian was making his dish and he didn't include it in the edit. FAIL! :'( He's there in spirit.
hahaha, your views would EXPLODE! :P And of course you would use the steamer from the CROCK pot! :P (okay, I am done.) :D
Y'all are too cute!
Thank you very much, Lex! 😀
Jessica is now busted! You are a Dog Trainer! Must see training videos with Oliver, lol. I am dog dependent normally, even more so right now with everything going on. And they help me test my cooking experiments. In fact, my girl Basset, Star, stole all the lentil wraps I made yesterday. That’s ok, tho, they were pretty bad. 😂
Oliver is the dictator of our lives. He throws epic fits if he doesn't get what he wants. 🤣
Wouldn’t it be amazing if a generation of North American kids grew up thinking THIS was sketti???
Yes!! :D
Please don’t cover your vent with a towel. It’s bad for your instapot. Also that steam isn’t as hot as people make it out to be. Just keep your hand below the venting nozzle when turning it and don’t put your face down into the steam.
Second?
sorry do scrape out noodles with fork
InstaPot: I use the steam button, 5 min and natural release
Make you dinner after 7? You certainly don't give him a lot of advance notice...
Hmm, and he did it in a few minutes!!
Yeah, we haven't really been sticking to certain times of eating and when we record it usually takes a quite a bit longer to eat. 😂 But we had the idea for the dinner a few hours before we started filming. 😀
Lol omg
Brian did you loose more weight? Looks like from our end. Jessica did.💕
Yes, I am still losing weight. 😀
Krocks In The Kitchen we can see it over here from our end. Probably doing the right thing. 👍
First?
