(Alternatively, place squash halves cut-side down on a rimmed baking sheet.

Bake in a 400 degrees F oven until the squash is tender, 40 to 50 minutes.)

Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Transfer to a plate; cover to keep warm.

Wipe out the pan, add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and heat over medium-high.

Transfer the pork to the plate with the spinach and cover; leave the liquid in the pan.

To serve, scrape the squash from the shells with a fork and divide among 4 bowls.

To use, trim off the root end and grassy top.

Peel off the outer layer and thinly slice (or mince) the softer inner stalk.
