Spaghetti Squash Recipe

Wow... so how did I NOT know about this amazing, and simple veggie that totally substitutes noodles ALL together. I swear, the longer I eat healthier and find alternative recipes, the more I'm impressed and wondering "WHY didn't I do this sooner?!"




What you Need:


  • Lean Ground Turkey
  • Spaghetti Sauce -- I found some good stuff from Trader Joes
  • Italian seasoning
  • 1 spaghetti squash
  • Garlic to taste
  • Pepper to taste
  • Olive Oil 
  • White or yellow onion


Directions:
*Preheat oven to 400 degrees 

  1. STAB the squash with a fork (or knife) in several spots, then bake in the oven at 400 degrees for 45 mins. 
  2. While the squash is cooking, cook turkey in the pan with diced onions, garlic and a little olive oil. Add whatever seasoning you like (I prefer basil, rosemary, italian). 
  3. Drain and and add the spaghetti sauce to the ground turkey, heat on low. 
  4. When the squash is done, cut in half, empty the seeds, then shred the insides into a large bowl
  5. Pour the spaghetti sauce and turkey on top of the spaghetti squash -- and thats it!  







BON APPETITE!
