My friend Aubrey does the Paleo diet, she has a blog with a lot of yummy recipes. I tried this spaghetti squash and I honestly don't think I'll ever go back to regular pasta. You can modify this recipe any way you like too! You can add meat.. or even use a different sauce. I even added some butternut squash to go with it and the extra flavor made it even better.
Spaghetti Squash
Recipe by: Aubrey Vick @ www.paleomadepainless.blogspot.com
1 Spaghetti Squash (this feed two people plus tons of leftovers for lunch the next day)
1 can of your favorite pasta sauce, I used one of my favorite red sauces
Preheat your oven to 350 and line a cookie sheet with aluminum foil. Cut the Spaghetti Squash in half, scoop out the ooey gooey stuff , spread a little bit of olive oil over it, put salt, pepper and other spices (I use garlic powder and basil). and flip them over (so the opposite I have in the picture above) Cook the Squash for 45 minutes, you'll want to be able to stick a fork in it but you don't want it to bake for too long or it will turn mushy. Take them out, grab a fork and start shredding so it looks spaghetti. Throw some heated up spaghetti sauce on it and enjoy!! Here's the recipe for the butternut squash if you want to add some fall flavor to yours:
Butternut Squash:
1 Butternut Squash
Olive Oil and Spices
Cut the squash in half, scoop out the ooey gooey stuff again, peel it and cut it in chunks. (however big you prefer) throw it in a smaller pan (like a 9x9 or smaller) toss them with some olive oil, season it with pepper, garlic salt, and basil. Or whatever else you want. Cook at 350 for 20-30 minutes until you can stick a fork in them.
