INGREDIENTS
1 medium Spaghetti Squash (155g cooked)
3 slices Turkey Bacon (85g total)
2 large Eggs (100g total)
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt (62g)
1 tablespoon grated Parmesan Cheese (5g)
1 teaspoon Olive Oil (5g)
1 clove Garlic
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Slice the spaghetti squash in half lengthwise, remove the seeds, drizzle with olive oil, and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Place the squash halves on a baking sheet, cut side down, and roast for about 30-40 minutes until tender and easily shredded with a fork.
While the squash is roasting, heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the turkey bacon slices and cook until crispy. Once cooked, chop the bacon into bite-sized pieces.
In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, nonfat Greek yogurt, grated Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Once the squash is done, use a fork to scrape out the strands into a large bowl. Quickly pour the egg and yogurt mixture over the hot squash, stirring continuously to create a creamy sauce (the heat from the squash will gently cook the eggs).
Fold in the crispy turkey bacon bits. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed, then serve immediately.
