Ingredients

  • 1 (2 pound) spaghetti squash

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • 1 small onion, chopped

  • 1 clove garlic, minced

  • 1 ½ cups chopped fresh tomato

  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil

  • 2 tablespoons sliced black olives

Directions

  1. Bring a very large pan of water to a boil. Add spaghetti squash and cook until it pierces easily with a fork, 20 to 30 minutes.

  2. While squash is cooking, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add onion and saute until soft, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and saute for 3 minutes. Stir in tomatoes and cook until heated through, about 3 minutes.

  3. Remove squash from the boiling water. Let cool slightly, then use oven mitts and cut squash lengthwise. Scoop out and discard seeds.

  4. Use a long fork to pull out strands of spaghetti squash into a serving bowl. Add sauteed veggies, basil, and olives and toss to combine.
