  • 15 oz Canned Black Beans rinsed and drained
  • 1 Bell Peppers red, chopped
  • 0.33 c Green Onions chopped, both green and white parts
  • 0.33 c Fresh Cilantro rinsed and chopped, pick leaves
  • 3 tbsp Lime Juice fresh
  • 1 tsp Olive Oil
  • 1 tsp Sea Salt
  • .5 tsp Ground Black Pepper

  • 1 Avocado ripe, diced
  • 0.33 c Fresh Cilantro Rinsed and chopped, pick leaves, a few stems are ok
  • 1 tsp Lime Juice fresh
  • 1 cloves Garlic minced or pressed

Instructions:

  • To roast the spaghetti squash: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit, prick all over and roast for 30 minutes, until the flesh is lightly browned and wrinkled.
  • Meanwhile, to assemble the slaw: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cabbage, black beans, bell pepper, green onion, cilantro, lime juice, olive oil and salt.
  • Toss to combine and set aside to marinate.
  • To make the salsa verde: In the bowl of a blender or food processor, combine the avocado, salsa verde, cilantro, lime juice and garlic.
  • Blend until smooth, pausing to scrape down the sides as necessary.
  • To assemble, first use a knife to halve the spaghetti squash.
  • Then use a fork to remove seeds then separate and fluff up the flesh of the spaghetti squash.
  • Then divide the slaw into each of the spaghetti squash “bowls,” and add a big dollop of avocado salsa verde.
  • Finish the bowls with another sprinkle of pepper, cilantro and optional crumbled feta or pepitas.
