Spaghetti Squash Chili

Directions

1. 1
   Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
2. 2
   Place the squash directly on the middle rack of the oven and bake for 45 to 50 minutes, turning once, until the flesh begins to give and feels tender when pressed.
3. 3
   Remove the squash from the oven, cut it in half lengthwise and remove the seeds with a spoon.
4. 4
   With a fork, scrape out the flesh into spaghetti-like strands, leaving about a half-inch-thick shell.
5. 5
   Mix the strands of squash into the hot chili and spoon the mixture back into squash shells.
6. 6
   Garnish with sour cream with sliced jalapeno peppers, olives and scallions.
7. 7
   If desired, add a border of tortilla chips stuck into the chili.
