Drizzle the inside of the spaghetti squash with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.

While the squash is roasting, place the onions in a saucepan with the olive oil over medium-high heat.

Sauté the onions for about 25 – 20, stirring frequently, until the onions are caramelized and golden brown.

Once the squash is done roasting, set the broiler to high.
