The ingredients for Spaghetti Squash Chili are:

-Spaghetti Squash, cooked & shredded.
-1 can diced tomatoes with green chilies (or without chilies for less spice)

-1 can of black beans
-season with garlic, chili powder or crushed red, cilantro (fresh or dried), etc.

Here is how you make Spaghetti Squash Chili:

Slice spaghetti squash lengthwise, scoop out & discard seeds. Place squash cut side down in a microwave safe dish with a 1/4 cup of water and microwave for 10-12 minutes. While squash is cooking, saute crushed garlic cloves for a minute or so, then add chicken, beans, tomatoes, lime juice and other spices. (Fresh chicken can be subbed into this recipe as well. Just chop up raw chicken and add to pan after garlic, and brown until cooked through. Then add the other ingredients.) Bring chili to a boil, then simmer chili until squash is finished cooking. Remove squash from microwave & use a fork to shred flesh into "spaghetti". A large squash will have about 4 cups of spaghetti strands. Portion about 1/4 of the squash into a bowl and top with the chili. Yum.Number of Servings: 4Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user FIONASOL.
