Number of Servings: 4

Ingredients

    1 med spaghetti squash
    1 small red onion, chopped
    1 jalapeno chili, seeded and minced
    1 15oz can black beans, rinsed and drained
    1 15 oz can sweet corn, rinsed and drained

    2 T. Lime juice

Directions

Makes four huge servings!
Roast squash in a 375 degree oven for 50 minutes until tender. When cool enough to handle, scoop flesh from squash halves leaving shell intact for stuffing.
For the filling, heat oil in a large pan and suate onion, jalapeno and red pepper for 2 minutes. Add beans, corn, chili powder and saute 1 minute. Add squash, cilantro, lime juice and salt, cook 1 minute until heated through.

Fill squash halves with filling, mounding mixture in center. Top with tortilla strips if desired.

Enjoy! I like the filling in corn tortillas like a taco!

    Very Good
    My husband and I both liked this dish. I'm vegan and he eats several meat free meals a week. Recipe needs to be proofread. Directions state cooking red pepper with the onion and jalapeno, but it's not listed in the ingredients so I didn't get any when I was at the store. Still fine without it. - 10/31/10
