GREEK-STYLE SPAGHETTI SQUASH WITH SHRIMP
The salty feta and olives are so great with the plump, sweet shrimp and the buttery strands of squash. This dish is great hot, but also delicious at room temperature. Try different herbs if you like. This was a very big hit in my house.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Cut the spaghetti squash in half and scrape out the seeds with a spoon. Place the halves cut-side down on a rimmed baking sheet and roast until the halves look somewhat wrinkly and collapsed, about 50 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 15 minutes.
- Use a fork to scrape the inside of the squash to form spaghetti-like strands and transfer to a large serving bowl.
- Heat the oil over medium heat in a very large, deep skillet (or even a large Dutch oven or pot). Add the garlic and saute until just golden, about 30 seconds. Add the shrimp and onion, season with salt and pepper and saute until the shrimp are pink and almost cooked through, about 4 minutes. Add the tomatoes, olives and oregano and saute until the mixture is hot and the shrimp are cooked through, another 2 minutes.
- Turn the shrimp mixture into the serving bowl and toss with the spaghetti squash. Sprinkle with the feta and serve.
WW GREEK-STYLE SPAGHETTI SQUASH (WORKS W/SIMPLY FILLING)
I got this from my WW leader. Although I'm not normally crazy about chickpeas or spaghetti squash, but this is really good! Definitely better than simply the sum of its parts. I used canned tomatoes with green chilis which added a bit of spice and IMO "made" this recipe. I did not use dill or mint. This is 4 WW pts per serving.

GREEK-STYLE SPAGHETTI
A wholesome and scrumptious Greek-style Spaghetti packed full of Mediterranean vegetables stir-fried until just tender, then flavoured with a blend of honey and balsamic vinegar. The vegetables are then tossed with the pasta and topped with crumbled feta cheese. Delicious. A dish just made to be eaten with a bottle of your favourite wine. I am posting this recipe, from one adapted from an International Masters '1001 recipes for pan or wok' recipe card, for the 2005 Zaar World Tour.

Steps:
- (To cook the spaghetti squash, if you haven't yet: preheat oven to 350 degrees F; slice the squash in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds; poke holes all over the squash with the tip of a knife; spray a cooking sheet with pan spray and bake the squash halves face down for 30 to 40 minutes or until easily pierced by a fork; let cool until they can be handled, then gently scoop out the insides with a fork - they will form into spaghetti-like strands).

- In another bowl, combine the squash, tomato, cucumber, feta, bell pepper, onion, onions, olives, and garbanzo beans, then add the whisked vinegar mixture and toss well.

LASAGNA STYLE SPAGHETTI SQUASH
This is so good! There's no pasta but it's still just as satisfying as if there were. The original recipe didn't have meat so feel free to omit the turkey. If you have leftovers scoop them out of the squash shells into another container, the shells don't keep well.
