This recipe is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. I always have a bunch of vegetables in my fridge that I don't know what to do with, so this recipe is a lifesaver.

The spaghetti squash was not cooked properly and the vegetables were mushy. I would not recommend this recipe.

This recipe was a bit bland for my taste. I would recommend adding more spices or herbs to give it more flavor.
