I tried my first spaghetti squash today and LOVED it. (I'd previously hated all winter squash.) Here's the concoction I threw together:

Prep work:

Bake a small spaghetti squash 45 minutes or so and fork out the noodlage.

Cooking:

Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a pan, toss in the spaghetti squash "noodles" with a can of diced tomtoes and a few mushrooms. Add enormous heaps of oregano, along with a buttload of onion & garlic (minced fresh or powder or whatever floats your stinky allium boat), and simmer the heck out of it until you can't stand it any longer. I also threw in about 6 ounces of diced chicken breast that I'd previously grilled.

Yum!

CalKing gave me the following nutritional info for the whole dish:
