Preparation

First, cook the spaghetti squash. Preheat the oven to 400 F. Poke holes in the outside of the squash and place on a baking sheet. Bake 45 minutes to 1 hour. Meanwhile, spray a large skillet with nonstick spray coating. Preheat over high heat. Add buffalo; cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes. Drain fat and discard. Stir in tomatoes with their juice, green pepper, onion, garlic, oregano, and black pepper. Bring to a boil; reduce heat. Simmer covered for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove cover; simmer for 15 minutes more. (If you like a creamier sauce, give sauce a whirl in your blender or food processor.) Shred the spaghetti squash and place on serving plates. Place sauce over squash and serve.
