Spaghetti Squash!!
A yummy alternative to pasta for dieters, or just a healthy meal addition! Spaghetti squash is a true star on the veggie stage!
To prepare:
Tastes best when cooked in the oven (pierce to avoid explosions!) For about an hour. Then cut it open in the middle and scoop out the seeds. Fork out the squash and viola! Spaghetti squash!
You can eat it so many different ways. I like it as a meal base, I had it with tofu and feta in a sort of salad type dish...then as actually spaghetti with marinara sauce.
