Spaghetti Squash is a great alternative to… you guessed it, spaghetti!
It has far fewer calories per cup, 31 as opposed to 221, With the butter adding only about 10-20 calories per portion.
It can be used in place of spaghetti in any recipe that uses it, eg. spaghetti squash Bolognese. It is also great to be eaten as is, which is why I add seasonings to this recipe.
Like my Rutabaga Fries these are a great way to fix your cravings while staying low carb/calorie. These are both staples in my house now.
Hope you enjoy.
