You can save the seeds and cook them later, just as you would with pumpkin seeds.Pour a little olive oil into each half of the squash and spread the oil around with your clean fingers. Place flesh side down on a baking sheet. I lined my sheet with aluminum foil for easy clean up.Roast in the oven at 375 degrees F. for 45 to 65 minutes or until tender. When you place a fork into the squash and there is very little resistence you know it's done.While the squash is roasting, now is the time to saute the onions in a frying pan with 2Tbsp.of olive oil. Start out with the heat on medium high and then you may lower it as the onion cooks a bit. You are going to cook the onions 10 to 12 minutes.Next add the kale to the pan and add a little drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt. Saute for about 7 or 8 minutes until the kale softens.Then add the garlic and saute an additional 1 minute. Turn off the heat and set aside.Once the squash is done, let them cool for at least 10 minutes and then take a fork and scrape out the squash, which will resemble spaghetti.Place the squash into a bowl and add the onion/garlic mixture. Add a drizzle of olive oil and give it a toss.Then add the parmesan cheese, parsley, almonds and a pinch of salt. Toss thouroughly and serve.
