1 small zucchini, diced
1 green or red pepper diced
1/2 pkg sliced mushrooms
1 can diced tomatoes (Italian herb, if available)

Using sharp knife, split spaghetti squash in half lengthwise and remove seeds. Microwave skin side down at high power for 12-15 minutes (depending on your microwave), rotate halfway through. Test with the point of small knife to see if it is tender; if not, nuke it for another few minutes.
In non-stick pan, saute garlic and onions until they release their fragrance. Add the remainder of the veggies and saute for about 5 minutes at medium heat till they start to release their juices. The onions should not get brown. Add tomatoes and stir. Simmer at low to medium heat till the excess liquid is evaporated. While the sauce is reducing, you can play with the seasonings until you get something you like.
Usin oven mitts, remove squash from microwave and place on large platter. Keep the mitts on while you take a large fork and flake the squash into pasta like strands. Us a lenghtwise motion - if you have never seen this before, you will be amazed how pasta like this becomes. Top squash with sauce and enjoy.
