INGREDIENTS
1 cup Spaghetti Squash (155g)
3 slices Turkey Bacon (approx 84g total)
1 large Egg
1/4 cup Nonfat Plain Greek Yogurt (61g)
1 tbsp Parmesan Cheese
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
Pinch of Black Pepper
Pinch of Salt
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Slice the spaghetti squash in half lengthwise, remove seeds, drizzle with a little olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Place cut side down on a baking sheet and roast for 30-35 minutes until tender.
While the squash roasts, heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the turkey bacon and cook until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Once done, chop into bite-sized pieces.
In a bowl, whisk together the egg, Greek yogurt, and grated Parmesan cheese until smooth. Add a small minced garlic clove, a pinch of salt, and black pepper.
When the squash is roasted, scrape out the strands into a bowl using a fork.
Quickly toss the warm spaghetti squash with the bacon pieces and then gently stir in the egg-yogurt mixture, allowing the residual heat to create a creamy sauce without scrambling the egg.
Drizzle the remaining olive oil over the dish for extra richness and toss to combine. Adjust seasonings if necessary and serve immediately.
