1 shallot or small onion, sliced
1 to 2 garlic cloves, chopped

Preheat oven to 375F.
Slice the squash lengthwise and scoop out the seeds. Place cut side down in a baking pan, with a little water in the bottom. Bake about 45 minutes until lightly browned and fork tender. When cool enough to handle, use a fork to pull out the strands.

In a large skillet over medium heat, saute the onion, garlic, rosemary, and red pepper flakes in little oil or water.

When the onion is soft, stir in the chickpeas, then the kale and lemon juice.

When the kale is wilted, add the squash strands, sun-dried tomatoes and parmesan and toss. Serve hot.
