Spaghetti Squash with Shrimp

Hello friends! It has been quite a while since I have posted a recipe for you. The month of February has been much busier than I anticipated! With two out of town conferences and exciting changes at work, I haven't had the opportunity to spend as much time in the kitchen. However, I have some very yummy recipes for the days ahead.

I am excited to share this recipe review with you today: Spaghetti Squash with Shrimp! This was a delicious recipe that I stumbled upon a few weeks ago. The hubby and I have already made this twice in two weeks. It is so yummy and very easy to make. It also makes great leftovers!

Spaghetti Squash with Shrimp
1 medium spaghetti squash
1/4 cup olive oil
2 - 3 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 lb shrimp, shelled and deveined
2 Tbs fresh lemon juice
1 Tbs oregano
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
2 small tomatoes, seeded and chopped
1/2 package (or 2 large handfuls) spinach, washed
1/4 cup toasted pine nuts
1 cup crumbled feta cheese

1. Cut spaghetti squash lengthwise. Scoop out seeds and discard. Place squash face down in a baking dish filled with 1/2 inch of water at 375 degrees for 45 minutes, or until soft.
2. Meanwhile, heat oil over medium heat and sauté garlic. Add shrimp, lemon juice, and spices. Sauté until shrimp are pink.
3. Add tomatoes and spinach and cook until spinach is wilted, about 1-2 minutes.
4. Using an oven mitt to avoid burning yourself, gently scrape out flesh of spaghetti squash with a fork.
5. Combine squash, shrimp mixture, pine nuts, and feta in a large bowl and toss to combine. Serve hot.
