While the meatballs are cooking, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Slice the spaghetti squash lengthwise and remove the seeds. Rub small amount of olive oil on the flesh of the squash and sprinkle with a pinch of sea salt. Place squash flesh side down on rimmed baking sheet and roast in oven for 45 minutes.
