There are SO many
variations you could make with this recipe! However, using what's
pictured here's what I did. Finely chop 5 big cloves of garlic, 1
large sweet pepper, the large onion and green tomato. Simmer,
covered, in 1-2T butter for 10-20 minutes. Meanwhile prep the red
and yellow tomatoes. Chopping them into ¼” cubes, set them aside
after stirring in ¼c Balsamic-Olive Oil Dressing and 1t-1T Rosemary
Seasoning. This filled a 6 cup bowl. After the first vegetables
have simmered about 20 minutes, add the other tomatoes. Bring to a
high simmer then turn heat down to a slow-bubbling simmer.
Cook ½# of ground round
steak, in a separate pan, breaking it into smaller pieces. When
completely cooked and nicely browned, add to the tomato sauce
mixture. Bring everything to a slow simmer then cover and let it do
its thing for an hour and a half. At the end of this point there
should still be liquid in the pot and the flavors will be very strong
and sweet.
Cook the spaghetti squash
until it feels soft through the skin. Pierce the skin several times
then wrap in several layers of paper towel. Put in a baking dish and
microwave 10-15 minutes or until cooked. You could also bake it in
the oven, covered until soft. Remove from heat source, allow to cool
20 minutes or so. Then cut open lengthwise and take the center seeds
and fibers out. Once you start scraping and the fibers look like
spaghetti, you've reached the edible part. Loosen all the strands
then transfer to a serving dish. Top with meat-vegetable sauce. If
needed, sprinkle with a little more Rosemary Seasoning, drizzle with
Balsamic-Olive Oil Dressing or top with crumbled Feta cheese. Serves
