Spaghetti Squash

   Here is another great and healthy recipe to keep you on track and maybe try something new. I made this for the first time yesterday and it might be my new favorite thing! Also the spaghetti squash is just as versatile as regular pasta but MUCH healthier. Enjoy

Spaghetti Squash

~ 1 Spaghetti Squash (or as many as you need for the number of people eating, one was more than enough for my roommate and I)

Cut the squash in half, long ways, scrape out the seeds and drizzle with olive oil. Then sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast in a 375 degree over for an hour and a half (times depend on oven)

Sauce

~ 1 can diced tomatoes

~ ½ onion

~ 1 clove garlic

~ 1 cup sausage (any kind you like)

~ 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning (spices)

~ Salt and pepper to taste

~ Pinch of sugar (that’s to take the acidity out to the can tomatoes)

~ Dash cayenne pepper *optional*

Sauté onions and garlic in a pot until soft then add sausage, cook for about 5 minutes. Add tomatoes and sugar boil for another 5 minutes. Add the Italian seasoning, salt and pepper and cayenne lover the heat to a simmer until you are ready to use. (Sauce only takes about 15 minutes)

*I suggest roasting the squash the day before if you are in a pinch for time

**Plan accordingly when making sauce and roasting all on the same day.

Live Healthy,
