Preparation
Step 1
DIRECTIONS:
Wash the spaghetti squash and cut it in half lengthwise.
Step 2
Scoop out all the seeds and discard them.
Step 3
Place in a microwave safe dish, cut side down with a small amount of water (not too much). Cover with saran wrap and microwave until soft.
Step 4
IN THE MEANTIME:
Saute onions, peppers (cut the same size as the onions) and toward the end of cooking add the garlic and tomato.
Step 5
Toss in some oregano, marjoram & thyme or just use basis alone (fresh if possible).
Step 6
If you want this sauce a little juicier, add a little bit of chicken broth. Another optional addition is a splash of red wine vinegar or balsamic vinegar balanced off with a tsp of sugar.
Step 7
When the squash is done, scrape it out of the shell with a fork. Add the sauce and sprinkle with a generous amount of parmesan cheese. (Thanks for the recipe Dorie.)
