Serving Size: 6

Cooking Time: 45 minutes

Ingredients

• 1 Whole spaghetti squash, halved
• 2 Tablespoons (tbsp) vegetable oil
• 1 Medium onion, minced
• 1 Clove garlic, minced
• 1.5 Cups tomatoes, chopped
• 0.75 Cups feta cheese, crumbled
• 3 Tablespoons (tbsp) black olives, sliced
• 2 Tablespoons (tbsp) fresh basil, sliced

Steps

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and lightly grease a baking sheet.
2. Place the spaghetti squash cut-sides down on the prepared baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for about 30 minutes, or until a sharp knife can be inserted with only a little resistance. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool slightly.
3. While the squash is baking, heat the vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the minced onion and cook until tender. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes until fragrant.
4. Add the chopped tomatoes to the skillet and cook until they are warmed through.
5. Once the squash is cool enough to handle, use a large spoon to scoop out the stringy pulp and place it in a medium bowl.
6. Toss the squash pulp with the cooked onion-tomato mixture, crumbled feta cheese, sliced black olives, and fresh basil.
7. Serve warm and enjoy the blend of flavors and textures.
