Directions Spaghetti Squash Mediterranean-Style
Directions
-
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Coat large baking dish with cooking spray.
Place spaghetti squash cut-side down in prepared baking dish.
Bake in preheated oven until spaghetti squash is tender when pierced with a fork, about 45 minutes. Turn squash over and bake for another 5 minutes. Remove spaghetti squash from oven. Scrape the strands from the skin and place into a large bowl.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add Italian sausage and cook, stirring occasionally, until sausage is brown and crumbly, 5 to 8 minutes. Remove sausage.
Return skillet to heat, add 1 tablespoon olive oil, spring onions, and garlic, cook and stir until onions are softened, about 5 minutes. Add zucchini, red peppers, and Italian seasoning and continue to cook and stir until the vegetables are soft, about 5 minutes.
Stir spaghetti squash and feta cheese into vegetable mixture, cook and stir until cheese melts, about 3 minutes. Stir sausage into vegetable mixture, season with salt and lemon pepper. Sprinkle tomato and parsley on top to serve.
