Ingredients
Method
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
- After halving and seeding the spaghetti squash, drizzle the cut sides with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Place the squash halves cut-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Roast for 30-35 minutes, or until the flesh is tender and easily pulls away into strands when scraped with a fork.
- While the squash is roasting, prepare the Mediterranean topping. In a medium bowl, combine tomatoes, olives, feta cheese, basil, garlic, lemon juice, oregano, remaining olive oil, salt, and pepper. Mix gently and set aside to allow flavors to meld.
- Once the squash is done, allow it to cool for 5 minutes. Then use a fork to scrape the inside of each squash half, creating long, spaghetti-like strands. Transfer the strands to a large bowl.
- Add the Mediterranean topping to the spaghetti squash strands and gently toss until everything is well combined.
- Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Sprinkle with additional feta cheese and fresh basil for garnish, and add red pepper flakes if desired.
- Serve warm or at room temperature as a satisfying side dish or light main course.
