Strands of baked spaghetti squash tossed with feta cheese, onions, tomatoes, olives, and basil for a Greek-inspired dish that tastes like pasta without all the calories.
Ingredients
2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
3 tablespoons sliced black olives
3/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
1 1/2 cups chopped tomatoes
1 clove garlic, minced
1 onion, chopped
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 spaghetti squash, halved lengthwise and seeded
Method
01
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet.
02
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.
03
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.
04
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.
