While pad thai ingredients are cooking, combine the sauce ingredients by hand or using a blender and set aside.

Remove pan from heat, draining excess liquid as needed, then return to medium-low heat. Push ingredients to one side, adding cooking spray as needed, then add eggs to the pan. Scramble until fully cooked and broken up into little pieces.

Stir together all ingredients, then add cooked spaghetti squash, sauce, bean sprouts, and peanuts to the pan - saving some peanuts for garnish. Toss mixture until fully combined.
