- Remove from oven and when cool to handle, scoop out the squash. Using a fork, scrape strands to separate. Set the shells and squash aside.
- Spray a skillet with vegetable cooking spray and place over medium heat. When pan is hot, add in ground turkey breast, onion and green pepper. Saute until meat is browned. Add in mushrooms, garlic, basil, oregano, parsley, salt and pepper. Cook and stir for 2 minutes. Add in tomatoes and cook and stir for another 2 minutes. Add squash and mix well.
