Using sharp knife, cut spaghetti squash in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds.
Place the sides cut side up on a foil lined baking sheet. Baste with olive oil and season with oregano, salt and pepper.
Roast the squash for 40 minutes, then allow to cool before handling.
While squash is roasting prepare avocado sauce by combining the avocados, lemon juice, yogurt, garlic, sea salt and pepper into a blender and pulsing until smooth.
