Spaghetti Squash Delight

Spaghetti Squash Delight

•  1 spaghetti squash, halved lengthwise and seeded
•  2 tablespoons vegetable oil
•  1 onion, chopped
•  1 clove garlic, minced

•  1 1/2 cups chopped tomatoes

 3/4 cup crumbled feta cheese

•  3 tablespoons sliced black olives
•  2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
•  Add all ingredients to list

Directions

•  

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet.
2. Place spaghetti squash with cut sides down on the prepared baking sheet, and bake 30 minutes in the preheated oven, or until a sharp knife can be inserted with only a little resistance. Remove squash from oven and set aside to cool enough to be easily handled.
3. Meanwhile, heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir onion in oil until tender. Add garlic; cook and stir until fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in tomatoes and cook until tomatoes are warmed through.
4. Use a large spoon to scoop the stringy pulp from the squash and place in a medium bowl. Toss with the vegetables, feta cheese, olives, and basil. Serve warm. ADD SPINACH IF YOU HAVE IT.

Note:  MICROWAVED THE SPAGHETTI SQUASH INSTEAD OF BAKING IT - AFTER PRICKING IT ALL AROUND WITH A KNIFE, PUTTING IT IN A BOWL WITH WATER AND MICROWAVING IT FOR 20 MINUTES.
