Ingredients
- 1 3 pound spaghetti squash
The Dressing:
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- ¾ teaspoon dried oregano
- ½ teaspoon agave nectar or honey
The Mix-Ins
- 1 roasted red bell pepper 2 halves, thinly sliced
- 8 kalamata olives quartered
- 3 tablespoons feta cheese
- salt and pepper to taste (if desired)
Instructions
- Using a large, sharp knife, pierce a spaghetti squash in several places. Place the spaghetti squash in a glass baking dish and cook in the microwave on high for about 15 minutes, turning the squash halfway through cooking.
- Before handling, let the squash stand for 10 minutes. Cut it in half lengthwise and scrape out the seeds and fibers. Using a fork, twist out strands of the spaghetti squash flesh and place in a large bowl. Let stand at room temperature.
The Dressing:
- In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, oregano and agave nectar until well-combined.
The Rest:
- Add the roasted red pepper, olives and feta cheese to the spaghetti squash. Pour in the dressing, toss to combine. Add salt and pepper, to taste, if desired. Serve.
