Spaghetti Squash

By christinlilly Feb 10, 2012

This pasta dish is a simple and healthy meal that can be enjoyed by the whole family. It doesn't take long to make and the best part is you can get creative and add any ingredient you want to the dish. Want to make it really healthy? Add some assorted vegies to the sauce or, if you're a meat lover, throw in some meatballs or even some grilled chicken. The possibilites are endless!

INGREDIENTS:

* 1/2 package of Trader Joes Turkey bacon, or any turkey bacon-DICED

* Wolfgang Puck Four Cheese Pasta Sauce

* Parmesan cheese

* Large spaghetti squash cooked and scrapped out

DIRECTIONS:

Cook bacon, just until "cooked", do not brown or crisp it.
Add in entire jar of sauce (and if you want either baby food carrots or squash for extra veggie packed action)
Let the bacon and sauce simmer for 10 mins
Add in parmesan (I used around a generous 1/4 a cup)
Pour sauce over spaghetti squash strands

I LOVE spaghetti squash. Thanks for sharing your recipe. I often times just cook the spaghetti squash in the microwave, scrap out the "noodles" with a fork, and add a little bit of olive oil, pepper and parsley. Divine! Great food blog feature!!
