Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Cook your spaghetti squash any way you like (I prefer to bake it at 375 for 30 to 40 minutes, but you could nuke it for about 8 minutes on high if you're in a hurry, just let it sit for a few minutes afterwards).
  2. Bring a pot of water to a rolling boil and cook your pasta according the the instructions until it is al dente.
  3. While the squash and pasta are cooking, chop up your onions, garlic and kalamata olives (and basil if you're using fresh).
  4. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet and sauté the onions, garlic, anchovies and red pepper flakes over medium heat until they're softened (about 5 minutes).
  5. Add the canned tomatoes, olives, capers and basil, reduce heat and simmer about 10 minutes.
  6. Once the spaghetti squash is done, scrape it out of the rind with a fork and add it into the puttanesca sauce.
  7. Once the pasta is done cooking, drain it and add it in to the sauce, and stir it well to combine.
  8. Serve and enjoy.
