- 1 cooked spaghetti squash
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 red bell pepper, julienned
- 1/2 yellow onion, sliced

Instructions
Cook the spaghetti squash using this step by step guide: How To Cook Spaghetti Squash
In a medium size skillet, heat olive oil over medium high heat, add onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add sliced bell peppers and sausage, cook until bell peppers are softened and sausage is lightly browned around the edges.
While veggies are cooking, warm pasta sauce.
Serve spaghetti squash in serving bowl and top with a little sauce and 1/2 of the vegetable mixture. Add julienned basil over top and enjoy.
NOTES:
If you prefer you can rake and keep the spaghetti squash in its rind, acting as its own bowl. One less dish to wash!
Marinara sauce can be optional, this works just as well without it.
