I love spaghetti squash and this dish is wonderful with beans, tomatoes, olives and leeks. It is not just a side dish, it is also a great vegetarian dish too! Originaly from the Jenny Craig cookbook.

Ingredients
  • 1 (2 1/2 lb) spaghetti squash
  • 1 tsp. roasted garlic-flavored vegetable oil (I use olive oil and 1 clove of minced garlic)
  • 2 cups thinly sliced leek (about one leek)
  • 2 (16-oz) cans navy beans, drained
  • 1 (14 1/2 oz.) can stewed tomatoes, undrained
  • 2 Tbl. ripe olives, chopped
  • 1 Tbl. balsamic vinegar
  • 1/4 tsp. salt
  • freshly ground pepper

Directions
  1. Wash squash, cut in half lengthwise. Remove and discard seeds. Place squash, cut sides down, in a 13" x 9" baking dish coated with cooking spray. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes or until tender, let cool slightly. Using a fork, remove spaghetti-like strands from squash, discard shell. Place strands on a platter; set aside and keep warm.
  2. Coat a saucepan with cooking spray, add oil. Place over medium-high heat until hot. Add leek and saute` 3 minutes or until tender. Add beans and tomatoes; cook over medium heat 5 minutes. Stir in olives and next 3 ingredients; cook until thoroughly heated. Spoon over squash.
