1 1/2 pound spaghetti squash
1 small onion (finely chopped)
10 shiitake mushrooms (or button mushrooms)
2 stalks scallions (finely chopped)
1 cup coleslaw mix of carrots and cabbage

Steps

Slice the spaghetti squash in half, lengthwise. Scoop out the seed with a spoon and discard.
Place spaghetti squash on a microwave safe plate or other microwave safe container. Place the cut side down (skin facing up). Microwave on high for 10 minutes.
Take the spaghetti squash out of the microwave and shred with a fork. If the squash is still hard, microwave for another 2-3 minutes, or until tender.
Use a fork and scrape the flesh into strings.
In a large pan over high heat, add vegetable oil and onions. Cook for 3 minutes or until onions are soft. Add coleslaw mix and red chile and cook for 2 minutes.
Add shiitake mushrooms and cook for another 2 minutes.
Add spaghetti squash, scallions and sauce, and mix well until the sauce has evenly coated all the vegetables. Cook for 2 minutes and turn the heat off.
Transfer to a bowl, top with sesame seeds and serve.
