• 1 spaghetti squash, halved lengthwise and seeded
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 1 onion, chopped
• 1 ½ cups chopped tomatoes
• ¾ cup crumbled feta cheese
• 3 tablespoons sliced black olives
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil

2. How to make Spaghetti Squash?

1. Preheat the 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. Bake in the preheated oven until a sharp knife can be inserted with only a little resistance, about 30 minutes. Remove squash from the oven and set aside to cool enough to be easily handled.

  (Don’t throw the seeds away. Spread ’em on a baking sheet with chili powder and salt and roast for a crunchy snack!)

1. Meanwhile, heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir onion in oil until tender. Add garlic; cook and stir until fragrant, from 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in tomatoes and cook until tomatoes are warmed through.
2. Use a large spoon to scoop the stringy pulp from the squash and place in a medium bowl. Toss with cooked onion-tomato mixture, feta cheese, olives, and basil. Serve warmly.
