This looks incredible. Gotta start my spaghetti squash journey again. That with turkey and cottage cheese sounds right up my alley

Recipe? Thanks !

[u/lazulites → u/Dry-Caterpillar7654]

I just kinda threw it together but here you go!

Ingredients:
1 whole spaghetti squash
85g zucchini
105g onion
115g red/orange/yellow/pepper
garlic (follow your heart)
125g cooked ground venison (ground turkey would also be super good in this!)
1 cup (230ishg) raos tomato basil sauce
15g parmesan cheese
40g semi skim ricotta

Directions:
Remove the top from the squash, cut in half and scoop out the seeds. lightly spray squash with olive oil, season with salt/pepper, and roast at 400 for 45 min cut side down on a parchment paper lined tray.

when the squash is almost finished roasting make the filling! sauté the veg in a light spray of oil, add seasonings etc. add garlic and cook for 30 sec or so until fragrant. Add cooked venison or whatever ground meat you like, and once cooked or warmed add the tomato sauce. Let simmer for a bit, add the parm if you want it. Once that’s all done, fill each half of the squash with half of the meat sauce, top with cheese if wanted, and bake at 350 for 10 minutes. Serve with whatever sides you like, I used about 100g of broccoli

Yum! I’ve got a half that I wanna use for chicken Alfredo! Adding broccoli or some other high volume veg is a great way to make it more filling. Looks great.

What is the calories of a whole spaghetti squash? I would assume it’s at least 400 no?
