Confetti Spaghetti Squash image

Lovely fall "spaghetti" recipe. Making use of the veggies from your local farmers garden or late fall garden. DH and I made this up one day when we were trying to use up some of our over abundant garden tomatoes. Note* a side dish for 4 or main dish for 2. Adapted from a recipe found on Hy-Vee.com
