It's always exciting to create a meal that's made up entirely of ingredients from this week's CSA share! This simple spaghetti squash recipe even uses the skin as a bowl!

Ingredients:
1 spaghetti squash, halved and seeded
1 bunch collards washed, trimmed and chopped finely
2 medium yellow onions, diced
2 garlic cloves, pressed
3 tomatoes cored and chopped Salt and pepper to taste
​3 Tbsp olive oil (divided)

Method: Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Prep the squash by cutting and seeding. Place halves on baking sheet and dress with 1 Tbsp olive oil, and a dash of salt and pepper. Coat all surfaces of the squash. Place open side down on baking sheet, as pictured. Place in oven to cook for 1 hour.

​While the squash cooks, prepare the filling. In a medium sauce pan saute the onions and garlic in remaining olive oil over medium heat. Once onions are clear and fragrant (about 4 minutes) add the collards. Cover and let simmer for 20 minutes over low heat.

Remove lid and add the chopped tomatoes. Stir well and cook over medium heat for 20 more minutes. Turn off heat, let the mixture sit in the sauce pan.

Once the squash has fully cooked, remove from oven and let it cool for 10 minutes. Gently remove the meat of the squash by loosening up with a fork. The squash will flake away from edges in nice spaghetti size pieces. Add the meat of the squash to the prepared veggie mixture. Stir a few times to distribute veggies evenly through the “meat”. Salt to taste.

​Stuff the filling back inside the shell of the squash! Garnish with herbs, cheese or additional toppings! NOTE: Spaghetti Squash skin is not edible (or if it is I do not recommend trying it!)
