    I played around with it a few different ways. One of my favs is to warm up about 1 tablespoon olive oil sautee garlic, shallots and baby spinach together with a piece of tilapia cut up in it. Then add the cooked squash to pan and sautee about 1/2 minute just to mix well. Plate and squeeze a little lemon juice over everything.

    Bump just means they want the thread to stay at the top of the list so they post "bump".

    I made this twice. The second time i cooked the squash ahead of time and let it cool first. So the final product was much less watery after i cooked it. Delish!!
    Ive also used it as 1 layer in a roasted veggie lasagna ( the other layers being sweet potato and zucchini)

    Just found this on "The Mushroom Channel" on Facebook:

    Mushroom Primavera over Spaghetti Squash
    Yield: 4 portions at about 260 calories



    Ingredients

    1 1/2 tbs Sliced Kalamata olives
    3/4 cup Crumbled, fat-free feta cheese

    1 cup Cherry or grape tomatoes, halved

    2 tsp minced garlic

    1 cup chopped onion

    1 lb White button mushrooms, sliced

    1 tbs Olive oil

    1 Spaghetti squash (about 3 pounds)

    1/2 cup Chopped fresh basil, plus more for garnish

    Directions

    With the tip of a knife, pierce squash in about 5 places. Place on paper towel in microwave and cook on high for 10 minutes, or until squash has softened. When cool enough to handle, cut squash lengthwise and remove seeds with a spoon. Remove the spaghetti-like strands of squash with a fork, set aside and cover to keep warm (or reheat in microwave at serving time).

    Heat oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add a single layer of mushrooms and cook, without stirring, for about 5 minutes or until mushrooms become red-brown on one side. Stir in onion and garlic and cook for 3 more minutes, until onions are softened. Add tomatoes, cheese and olives and cook about 3 minutes longer, until mixture is hot and bubbling. Remove pan from heat and stir in basil.

    Divide squash among 4 shallow serving bowls. Spoon sauce over spaghetti squash and garnish with additional freshly chopped basil. Serve immediately.

    I bought my first ever spaghetti squash! I happened to see it in the store and remembered this thread. The family thinks it looks weird, but they are ready to try it if it means marinara and Italian cheeses! :tongue:
