This lighter version offers a satisfying mix of textures and flavors with a hint of smoky bacon and a velvety sauce that clings to every strand of squash.
INGREDIENTS
1 cup cooked Spaghetti Squash (155g)
3 slices Turkey Bacon (approx. 84g total)
1 large Egg
1 large Egg White
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt (60g)
1 tablespoon grated Parmesan Cheese (5g)
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
Pinch of Black Pepper
Pinch of Salt
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Slice the spaghetti squash in half lengthwise, remove the seeds, and drizzle the cut sides with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Place the squash cut-side down on a baking sheet and roast for about 35-40 minutes or until the flesh is tender and can be easily shredded with a fork.
While the squash roasts, cook the turkey bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Remove and crumble it into bite-sized pieces.
In a small bowl, whisk together the whole egg, egg white, nonfat Greek yogurt, grated Parmesan, a pinch of salt, and black pepper.
Once the spaghetti squash is done, use a fork to gently scrape out the strands into a large bowl.
Quickly toss the hot squash with the warm crumbled turkey bacon and then stir in the creamy egg-yogurt mixture, allowing the residual heat to gently cook the eggs and form a silky sauce.
Serve immediately, garnishing with additional black pepper if desired.
