Very forgiving recipe. Use any and all veggies you have laying around.

Cook spaghetti squash until tender. Meanwhile, cook chicken with onions, pepper and tomatoes. When cooked, add taco seasoning mix with 1 cup water and simmer. Prepare nacho cheese packages following pkg directions (mine was made with skim milk.

Shred spaghetti squash into strands when cool enough to handle and spread in a large pan (I used a 9 by 13 lasagna pan).

Combine chicken mixture with beans, corn and nacho cheese mix. Pour this over top of spaghetti squash. Top with shredded cheese and bake for 40 minutes in a 375 degree oven.
