Spaghetti Squash Premevera

Spaghetti Squash. It's a weird little vegetable. Part spaghetti, part squash, all yummy! I love it! It pretty much can do anything spaghetti can do. I use it to make premevera with vegetables. Nice and simple, very substantial and filling and changable for the seasons (using vegetables that are in season). Here's what I did his time. Enjoy!
