INGREDIENTS
1 cup Spaghetti Squash (155g)
2 slices Turkey Bacon (60g)
1 large Egg (50g)
1/4 cup 2% Milk (61g)
1 tbsp Parmesan Cheese (5g)
2 ounces Cooked Turkey Breast (56g per ounce, 112g total)
1 clove Garlic
1/4 tsp Black Pepper
1/4 tsp Salt
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Slice the spaghetti squash in half lengthwise, scoop out the seeds, drizzled with a little olive oil, and season lightly with salt and pepper. Place cut-side down on a baking sheet and roast for 30-40 minutes until tender.
While the squash roasts, heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and cook the turkey bacon until crispy. Remove and chop into bite-sized pieces.
In the same skillet, sauté the minced garlic for about 1 minute until fragrant. Add the 2 ounces of cooked turkey breast to warm through.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, and grated Parmesan cheese. Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
Once the spaghetti squash is done, use a fork to scrape out the strands into a bowl. Return the squash to the skillet with the garlic and turkey, then stir in the turkey bacon.
Remove the skillet from heat and quickly pour in the egg mixture, stirring vigorously to create a creamy sauce without scrambling the egg.
Gently mix until everything is well combined and the residual heat thickens the sauce to a rich, glossy finish. Serve immediately and enjoy your lighter, creamy carbonara.
