Greek Style Spaghetti Squash Salad

3 Tbsp red wine vinegar
2 tsp olive oil
1 tsp dried oregano
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
2 garlic cloves, minced
3 cups cooked spaghetti squash
2 cups diced tomato
1 cup diced cucumber
1/2 cup (2 oz) feta
1/4 cup green pepper, chopped
1/4 cup red onion, chopped
2 Tbsp pitted Kalamata Olives (optional)
1 can (15.5 oz) garbanzo beans, drained

To cook spaghetti squash, prep like you would regular squash: cut in half, seed, and set in a casserole dish flesh side down, prick with a fork a couple times. Add an inch or so of water and bake at 350 degrees till skin is brown. Time depends on the size, 30-45 minutes. Or you can microwave. When done, remove the "flesh" with a fork and it'll come out like spaghetti strands.

Directions:
Mix first 6 ingredients in a bowl with a whisk. Combine the rest of the ingredients, add vinegar mixture and mix well.
Cover and chill.
Makes 8 (1 cup) servings
