Spaghetti squash has become an all time favourite here at Mangaroa Farms mainly because it has a very special use.  It has a sweet, slightly nutty flavour and comes in a variety of shapes, sizes and colours - with the orange variety having a higher beta carotene content; which helps support skin, vision and immune function.

While a member of the pumpkin family, when cooked its appearance and texture is that of spaghetti pasta making it the perfect substitute in many pasta dishes!
