Protein-Packed Turkey Bacon Spaghetti Squash Carbonara
Enjoy a nutritious twist on a classic carbonara using tender spaghetti squash, crispy turkey bacon, and a creamy egg mixture enriched with Parmesan and Greek yogurt. This dish delivers a satisfying, protein-packed meal with a delightful balance of savory flavors and a hint of herbs from fresh spinach.
INGREDIENTS
1 cup Spaghetti Squash
4 slices Turkey Bacon
1 serving Egg (1 whole egg + egg whites equivalent to 2 egg whites)
2 tablespoons Parmesan Cheese
1 cup Spinach
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1/4 cup Non-fat Greek Yogurt
Pinch of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat a skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Crumble the turkey bacon into the skillet and cook until crispy. Remove and set aside.
Using a fork, shred the cooked spaghetti squash into strands. Add the squash to the skillet and warm it through for about 2 minutes.
In a bowl, whisk together the whole egg and egg whites, then stir in the Parmesan cheese, Greek yogurt, and a pinch of black pepper.
Toss in the fresh spinach with the warm squash just until slightly wilted.
Remove the skillet from heat and pour the egg and cheese mixture over the squash and spinach, stirring quickly to form a creamy sauce without scrambling the eggs.
Mix in the crispy turkey bacon, adjust seasoning if needed, and serve immediately.
