My first venture into spaghetti squash. After a bit of research I found it was ultimately flexible and very easy to prepare. I had fun with what was on hand.

  • 2 servings
  • 1 medium Squash, spaghetti
  • 1 cup Spinach, raw
  • 2 tbsp Parmesan cheese, grated
  • 1 slice Bread, Wheat Simply LIght Pepperidge Farm

  • 12 Shrimp Tail-On Cooked Harvest Of The Sea
  • 1 tsp italian seasonings

  1. Wash the squash, cut it in half, scoop out the seeds. Place the halves flesh side down in a glass dish, put several slits in the gourd and microwave on high for 8 minutes.
  2. Put the stewed tomatoes and olives in a pot to simmer. You want to simmer off most of the water.

  4. Mix in Parmesan, Italian seasonings, salt and pepper.
  5. Take the tails off the shrimp. Slice each shrimp in half lengthwise.
  6. Put the spinach in the pan with the tomatoes and saute it up till it is all wilted.
  7. Take the squash out and use a fork to pull out the strands. Scoop it good you are going to put the whole mess back into the gourd to bake.
  8. Toss the squash, tomato mix and shrimp. Make sure you don' t let the squash stay in clumps. Use a big fork and salad spoon to toss the stuff together so its nice and evenly distributed.
  9. Split the mixture into each half of the empty squash gourd.
  10. Sprinkle the bread crumb mixture on top.
  11. Put the squash into the preheated 375 oven for about 15 minutes to heat and brown up the crumbs.
