1. Preheat the oven to 400ºF

2. Prick the squash all over with a fork and microwave for 5 minutes to soften it. Cut it in half lengthwise, scoop out the seeds, and put the halves in a baking dish, cut-side down. Add 1 tablespoon water and bake for about 40 minutes, or until the squash is tender. Use a fork to scrape the flesh of the squash into long, thin "noodles." Put 1 cup for Meal Map A, or 2 cups for Meals Maps B and C, on a plate and set aside. (If you cook the whole spaghetti squash, you will have more than the amount you need for this recipe, but you could double or triple the recipe, or save the remaining squash to use in another recipe, such as the Spaghetti Squash Frittata in the Metabolism Revolution book.) 

3. In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the chicken and green beans, cover, and cook for 3 to 5 minutes. Open the lid and stir. Add the bell pepper, scallions, and red pepper flakes, cover, and cover for 3 to 5 minutes. Open the lid and stir. Add the zucchini, salt, parsley, basil, and sage. Stir to combine the ingredients. Cover and cook until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender by not mushy, about 8 minutes. 

4. To serve, pour the chicken-vegetable mixture over the spaghetti squash and garnish with cashews.
