INGREDIENTS
1 cup Spaghetti Squash (baked)
2 slices Turkey Bacon
2 large Egg Whites
1 large Whole Egg
1/4 cup Low-Fat Cottage Cheese
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Parmesan Cheese
1 clove Garlic
Pinch Salt
Pinch Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Slice the spaghetti squash in half lengthwise, remove the seeds, brush the flesh lightly with olive oil, and season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Roast face down on a baking sheet for 30-35 minutes until tender.
While the squash is roasting, cook the turkey bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crisp. Once done, chop into bite-sized pieces.
In a bowl, whisk together the egg whites, whole egg, and low-fat cottage cheese until smooth. Mince the garlic and add it to the mixture along with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
Once the spaghetti squash is cooked, use a fork to scrape out the strands into a large mixing bowl.
Quickly toss the warm squash with the egg mixture, allowing the residual heat to gently cook the eggs. Stir in the chopped turkey bacon.
Finish by sprinkling Parmesan cheese on top and mixing well for a creamy, carbonara-style finish.
Serve immediately and enjoy your healthy, protein-packed twist on carbonara.
