I love Olive Garden's Chicken Scampi, too, so this recipe caught my eye. I have been looking for a way to try spaghetti squash, as I love pasta but want to stay away from the carbs. This recipe was really tasty. It all melds together so well, I never missed the pasta! My husband loved it too! - 1/22/12

I might make this again. It was good, but not great. Very filling and healthy though, I like that! This was the first time I have ever cooked spaghetti squash, so I still have lots of experimenting to do. I think next time I may add some other veggies (mushrooms) and probably more garlic. - 4/9/08
