INGREDIENTS
1 cup Spaghetti Squash (155g)
3 slices Turkey Bacon (~60g)
1 whole Egg (50g)
2 Egg Whites (66g)
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt (60g)
1 tbsp Parmesan Cheese (5g)
1 tsp Olive Oil (4.5g)
1 clove Garlic
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Cut the spaghetti squash in half lengthwise and remove the seeds.
Drizzle 1 teaspoon of olive oil over the squash halves, season with salt and pepper, and place them cut side down on a baking sheet. Roast in the oven for 35-40 minutes until tender.
While the squash roasts, cook the turkey bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Remove from the skillet and chop into bite-sized pieces.
In a small bowl, whisk together the whole egg, egg whites, nonfat Greek yogurt, grated Parmesan cheese, and minced garlic. Add a pinch of salt and pepper.
Once the squash is cooked, use a fork to gently scrape out the strands to form spaghetti-like noodles, and transfer them to a large bowl.
Pour the egg and yogurt mixture over the hot squash strands and quickly toss to coat the 'noodles', allowing the heat to lightly thicken the sauce without scrambling the eggs.
Fold in the crispy turkey bacon pieces. Taste and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
Serve immediately, enjoying the warm, creamy texture with a hint of smokiness from the turkey bacon and a bright kick from the garlic.
