Spaghetti Squash With Tomato Sauce

From "The Healing Foods Cookbook". Winter squash helps with building your immune system and wound healing. I have not tried this yet, but it looks scrumptious.

• Ready In: 1 hr 10 mins
• Serves: 4

Ingredients

• 1  large spaghetti squash
• 1  large onion, diced
• 2  garlic cloves, minced
• 5  plum tomatoes, chopped
• 1⁄2 cup tomato puree
• 1  teaspoon dried oregano
• 1⁄2 teaspoon black pepper
• 3  tablespoons parmesan cheese, grated

Directions

1. Place the squash in a very large pot, add water to cover. Bring to a boil and cook, uncovered for 30-60 minutes, or until easily pierced with a fork. Drain, halve, and set aside until cool enough to handle.
2. Coat a 2 quart saucepan with nonstick spray. Add the onions and saut over medium heat until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and saute 1 minute.
3. Add the tomatoes, tomato puree, oregano, and pepper. Simmer for 20 minutes.
4. Discard the seeds from the squash. Using a fork, seperate into spaghetti-like strands. Reheat briefly in a large frying pan. Serve topped with the sauce and sprinkled with the cheese.
