Delicious New Dinner Recipe!

I made this new recipe for dinner the other night and it was fantastic! Best of all, it was totally on program. Try it out and let me know what you think!

Italian Spaghetti Squash

Ingredients:

1-2 Medium Spaghetti Squash
1 Yellow Squash
1 Green Squash
2 Medium Tomatoes

Directions:

1. Preheat Oven to 375

2. Use a large fork to poke holes all of the spaghetti squash

3. Place squash in a shallow baking dish and bake for 1 hour

4. Remove Spaghetti Squash and set aside to cool

5. Chop Yellow and Green squash and saute on medium-high with Pam and seasonings (I used Onion Powder, Garlic Powder, and Mrs. Dash's Italian Medley)

6. When squash begins to soften (~5 mins) add chopped tomatoes, stir, and continue cooking on medium heat until everything is soft.

7. While this is cooking, halve the spaghetti squash. Use a spoon to scoop out the seeds and pulp.

8. Use a fork to scrape the edges of the inside of the spaghetti squash, turning it into spaghetti like strands (thus the name!)

9. Fluff the spaghetti squash in a serving dish. Mix the tomato/squash mixture into the spaghetti squash strands and serve!

This dish tasted great and was perfect for the Medical Program, At Home Program, or just generally healthy eating! Serve it with grilled or baked chicken or fish, or with a salad with lunch meat and boiled egg whites to get enough protein.
