It was just okay, definitely not outstanding. I could have used more olives and less vinegar and squash. I normally love squash but the consistency was too watery in this mix.

The tangy components of the traditional Greek salad--feta cheese, kalamata olives, and oregano--are ideal complements to the subtlety of spaghetti squash. Serve with beef, lamb, or chicken.
