Throw out your pasta!!!!!

Spaghetti Squash


I remember last year someone telling me that they made spaghetti squash for dinner instead of pasta. At the time, I was like ew! I can't imagine eating that instead of my beloved pasta!!

Well, since I've jumped on the Paleo bandwagon, I can't eat pasta anymore.  I LOVE spaghetti and meatballs! I've been seeing a lot of recipes lately for spaghetti squash during my hunt for yummy paleo friendly recipes.

Last night, I decided to muster up the courage to make it.  To my surprise, it was DELISH! I'm now fine with throwing out my pasta and eating my now beloved spaghetti squash! It's EASY to make!

Basically, chop the squash in half (length wise).  Put both facedown in a pyrex dish and add water halfway to the top.  Bake it on 350 for about an hour.  Dump the water out and flip the squash over to let it cool for 5-10 minutes.  Take a fork and shred it from the sides.  Voila! You got "pasta"! :) 


Share some of your squash pasta recipes!! :)
