This spaghetti squash primavera is my version of a recipe that came with my weekly produce basket, which contained several of the ingredients used in the recipe. I made a few changes to suit my tastes, and the results were delicious! It makes a great vegetarian main course or a nice accompaniment to a meat entrée.

- 1 spaghetti squash
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 onion , chopped
- 1 large clove garlic , minced
- 1 large zucchini , cut into bite-size pieces
- 1 green bell pepper , chopped
- 1 tablespoon dried Italian herb seasoning
- fresh ground black pepper , to taste
- 1.5 cups chopped tomato
- 0.75 cups crumbled feta cheese

1
Pierce the shell of spaghetti squash with a fork and place in a microwave-safe dish; cook in the microwave on high for 12 minutes. Set aside until cool enough to handle.

Slice squash in half lengthwise; remove seeds. Use a fork to pull the flesh away from the shell and place into a large bowl; fluff with the fork to separate strands as much as possible.
