Creamy Turkey Bacon Spaghetti Squash Carbonara
Enjoy a lighter twist on a traditional carbonara with tender strands of roasted spaghetti squash, crisp turkey bacon, and a creamy egg and Parmesan sauce. This dish delivers a comforting and satisfying meal with a clean, protein-packed profile.
INGREDIENTS
1 cup cooked Spaghetti Squash (155g)
4 slices Turkey Bacon (100g)
1 large Whole Egg
3 large Egg Whites
3 Tbsp grated Parmesan Cheese (15g)
1 tsp Olive Oil (5g)
1 clove Garlic
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Slice the spaghetti squash in half lengthwise, scoop out the seeds, drizzle with a small amount of olive oil, and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Place the squash halves cut side down on a baking sheet and roast for about 30-35 minutes until the flesh is tender and easily shredded into strands with a fork.
While the squash roasts, heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the turkey bacon slices and cook until crisp. Remove from the pan, chop them into bite-sized pieces, and set aside.
In a bowl, whisk together the whole egg, egg whites, Parmesan cheese, and minced garlic. Set this creamy mixture aside.
Once the spaghetti squash is done, use a fork to gently scrape out the strands into a mixing bowl. Drizzle with the teaspoon of olive oil and add the cooked turkey bacon.
Quickly pour the egg and Parmesan mixture over the hot squash and bacon, stirring vigorously to create a silky sauce without scrambling the eggs. Season with additional salt and pepper if desired, and serve immediately.
