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.
Ingredients
- 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
Instructions
-
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.
-
2
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.

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir onion in hot oil until just tender, about 3 minutes. Add garlic; cook and stir for another 3 minutes. Stir zucchini and green bell pepper into mixture; season with Italian herb seasoning and black pepper.

Pour tomatoes into the skillet. Continue cooking just until tomatoes are warmed, 3 to 5 minutes. Add squash strands to the skillet and toss until evenly mixed. Sprinkle with feta cheese and toss again to serve.

Old-Fashioned Apple Dumplings
These are the apple dumplings my grandmother used to make: warm, flaky, apple-y sweet, and drizzled with a sauce baked right with them. They aren't difficult to make, just a little time-consuming.
Spinach Egg White Muffins
These spinach egg white muffins are a healthier version of spinach and cheese quiches! They make a perfect and filling lunch on a toasted English muffin with a slice of tomato. I'm sure they'd be delicious with different combinations of veggies, too!
Chai Sugar Cookies
These chai sugar cookies are chewy, buttery, and beautifully spicy. The chai spice mix appears twice—once in the cookie dough, and then in the sugar and spice mixture the dough is rolled in before baking.
