Spaghetti Sqaush Saute

Ingredients:

• 1/4 spaghetti sqaush
• 1 chicken breast
• 1 cup cherry tomatoes
• 2 garlic cloves
• canola oil spray

Preperation:

1. Pre-heat oven to 350º.  Cut squash in half and seed.  Spray cooking sheet with canola oil spray, place squash halves face down on cooking sheet, cover with aluminum foil, and bake for 60 minutes.  (4o minutes works, but 60 lets squash get good and tender)
2. Remove squash from oven, leave covered, and set aside.
3. Cut chicken into small pieces, spray saute pan with canola oil, and cook over medium heat.
4. Slice tomatoes in halve, dice garlic cloves, and add to chicken once chicken is about half-way done.  Give everything in the pan a quick spray with canola oil.
5. Use fork to remove squash “strands” from rind into bowl.  Squash will resemble spaghetti…
6. Add chicken, tomatoes, garlic to squash.  Mix.  Serve.

Doesn't look like spaghetti from the outside.
