Spaghetti Squash I
The flesh of spaghetti squash comes out in long strands,
very much resembling the noodles for which it is named. In
this recipe, the 'noodles' are tossed with vegetables and
feta cheese. You can substitute different vegetables, but
be sure to use ones that have contrasting colors. Prep
Time: approx. 15 Minutes. Cook Time: approx. 30 Minutes.
Ready in: approx. 45 Minutes. Makes 6 servings.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
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
Directions
1 Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly
grease a baking sheet.
2 Place spaghetti squash 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.
Saute onion in oil until tender. Add garlic, and saute for 2
to 3 minutes. Stir in the tomatoes, and cook only until
tomatoes are warm.
4 Use a large spoon to scoop the stringy pulp from the
squash, and place in a medium bowl. Toss with the sauteed
vegetables, feta cheese, olives, and basil. Serve warm.
Baked Spaghetti Squash Lasagna Style

it a try! Prep Time: approx. 30 Minutes. Cook Time:
approx. 1 Hour 15 Minutes. Ready in: approx. 1 Hour 45
Minutes. Makes 6 servings.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
1 spaghetti squash, halved
lengthwise and seeded
1 onion, chopped
2 tablespoons minced garlic
2 (14 ounce) cans stewed tomatoes
1 tablespoon dried basil
1 cube vegetable bouillon
black pepper to taste
1 (15 ounce) can black
olives, chopped
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
Directions
1 Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Spray a
baking sheet with a thin layer of cooking spray. Place squash
halves cut side down on the baking sheet.
2 Bake squash 35 minutes in the preheated oven, or until
a knife can be easily inserted. Remove from oven, and cool.
3 Meanwhile, spray a non-stick saucepan with cooking
spray. Over medium heat, saute the onion and garlic until
golden brown. Stir in tomatoes, basil, bouillon cube, and
black pepper. Cook for about 15 minutes, or until you have a
medium thick sauce.
4 Remove squash strands with a fork, reserving the
shells. Layer each half with a spoonful of the sauce, a layer
of spaghetti squash strands, olives, and mozzarella
cheese. Repeat layers until shells are full, or until all of
the ingredients are used. Top with Parmesan cheese.
5 Bake for 20 minutes in the preheated oven, or until
Parmesan cheese melts.
Note:
If you like, place the seeds on the same baking sheet as
the spaghetti squash, sprinkle with garlic salt, and roast
until done, about 30 minutes. Use them as appetizers.
