Ingredients

    cooking spray
    1 spaghetti squash (about 3 to 3.5 cups)
    1 onion, chopped
    2 tablespoons minced garlic
    2 (14 ounce) cans stewed tomatoes
    1 tablespoon dried basil
    1 cube vegetable bouillon
    black pepper to taste
    1 (15 ounce) can black olives, chopped
    1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
    1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese

Directions

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Spray a baking sheet with a thin layer of cooking spray. Cut spaghetti squash in half lengthwise, and remove the seeds. Place cut side down on prepared baking sheet. Bake for 35 minutes in preheated oven, or until a knife can easily be inserted. Remove from oven, and cool.

Meanwhile, spray a non-stick saucepan with cooking spray. Saute onion and garlic until golden brown. Stir in tomatoes, basil, bouillon cube, and black pepper. Cook for about 15 minutes, or until you have a medium thick sauce.

Remove squash strands with a fork. In an 8 x8 or 9 x9 pan layer with a spoonful of sauce, a layer of spaghetti squash strands, olives, and mozzarella. Repeat layers until all of the ingredients are used. The last layer should be squash, sauce, and Parmesan cheese.
5 Bake for 20 minutes, or until Parmesan cheese melts.

Note:
If you like, place the seeds on the same baking sheet as the spaghetti squash, sprinkle with garlic salt, and roast until done, about 30 minutes. Use them as appetizers.
