- Add the asparagus and continue to saute until the asparagus has turned bright green and is soft but not limp.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, cheese, salt, and pepper.
- When the spaghetti squash is ready and cool enough to handle, use a fork to scrape out the strands. Do not turn off the oven and keep it at 400° F.
