Preheat oven to 200C and place halved spaghetti squash with seeds removed cut side down on baking sheet. Cook for 35-45 min or until fork tender. Or you can place in large pot with and 1 inch of water and steam till fork tender.
Once you have removed the cooked squash from the oven or pot, melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat and sauté the onion and garlic till tender and slightly golden.
Transfer the cooked onion and garlic to a large mixing bowl, and combine with the yogurt and 2 oz of shredded cheese, and season with salt and pepper. When the spaghetti squash is cool enough to handle, use a fork to scrape the noodle like strands into the bowl, mix well.
Transfer the mixture to a roughly 2.5 quart casserole dish and smooth the top with a spatula. Sprinkle the remaining shredded cheese over the top, and return to the oven to bake for 30 min at 200C
The casserole is ready when the top is a light golden brown.
