Feta spaghetti squash is a simple side we’ve been making for years and is similar in flavor to baked feta pasta, the recipe of Tiktok fame!
Ingredients :
1 spaghetti squash about 1 ½ lbs
1 tablespoon olive oil divided
½ teaspoon dried oregano
1 cup cherry tomatoes or grape tomatoes halved
¼ cup crumbled feta cheese
salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon salted butter
Directions :
Cut spaghetti squash in half lengthwise & scoop out the seeds. Discard (or save for roasting).
Brush the cut side of the squash with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Fill the cavity of each squash with half of the feta cheese and tomatoes. Season with additional salt & pepper and ½ teaspoon oregano.
Place the squash on a baking pan uncovered and bake uncovered 40-50 minutes or until the squash is tender when poked with a fork.
Remove from the oven and use a spoon to place the feta cheese, tomatoes, and any juices in a small bowl. Stir together to create a creamy sauce.
Use a fork to scrape the squash and create strands. Toss strands with butter. Add the feta and tomato mixture to the squash and mix.
Serve warm with additonal feta cheese and parsley for garnish if desired.
