Greek Spaghetti Squash
- Minutes to Prepare:
- Minutes to Cook:
- Number of Servings: 2
Ingredients
- 1 spaghetti squash- 1 TBSP. vegetable oil- 1/2 onion, chopped- 1.5 Cups tomato, diced- 1 tsp. minced garlic- 1/3 Cup feta cheese, crumbled- 5 leaves basil, fresh- 2 TBSP. black olives- Salt and Pepper (to taste)
PREPARE THE SQUASH:
Take a fork, and stab holes all around the spaghetti squash. This will allow ventilation during the cooking process (and prevent an explosion in your microwave!)
Place in a microwave-safe plate, and microwave on high for 12 minutes. When done, set aside and allow to cool.
PREPARE REMAINING INGREDIENTS:
- Put vegetable oil in a pan and saute onion until softened and slightly brown.
- Add tomato and garlic, and saute for 3 more minutes. Set aside.
- Slice squash in half (length wise), and with a fork, begin scraping the flesh inside. Your result should be multiple, "spaghetti-like" strings. Put these in a separate bowl as you make them.
- Once the squash is emptied of its "spaghetti," mix in the onion-tomato-garlic combo.
- Once mixed, add in the olives, basil, and feta.
- Add salt and pepper if you'd like. Enjoy!
