    Very easy to make and tasty too! For those who haven't cooked squash before: don't forget to scoop out the seeds and "guts" before cooking in the oven. - 7/19/11

    I made this without the oil to save calories and it was still delicious. I can't wait to make this again, because for only 175 calories this is my new favorite meal! - 10/22/09

    This a great dish and what a way to up your veggie intake. My family loves it, even my picky 3y old. I added parmesean cheese instead of feta since that is what I had on hand. Love it! - 6/2/08

    I made 2 servings using only half a small squash and added spinach, sweet red peppers and mushrooms and it was Magnifico!! also cooked the squash in the microwave and used Olive oil instead of Vegetable oil. - 2/4/13

    Loved it! I too made the recipe w/o the oil. I didn't put in the black olives either (not crazy about black olives). I added cut up, cooked chicken. It was delicious! I will definitely make this again! - 4/12/12

    This was good but I must of had a big squash. There was not enough tomato for me so I added a can of diced tomatoes. I used fat free feta and added Garlic pepper,salt and garlic powder( I like garlic). I also put some parmesan on my serving. I think the fat free feta really cut back on the fat. - 2/3/11

    This recipe is great when growing spaghetti squash which is plentiful during the summer months. Flavorful! Subbed Parmesan cheese rather than feta. - 2/26/21
