Savor a lighter take on classic carbonara with roasted spaghetti squash, crisp turkey bacon, and a creamy, protein-packed sauce made from eggs, nonfat Greek yogurt, and Parmesan cheese. This dish marries comfort with clean eating, providing a satisfying blend of flavors and a nutrient-smart profile.
INGREDIENTS
1 cup cooked spaghetti squash
4 slices turkey bacon
2 large eggs
1/4 cup nonfat Greek yogurt
2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
Pinch of salt
Pinch of black pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Slice the spaghetti squash in half lengthwise, remove seeds, brush lightly with cooking spray or a minimal amount of olive oil, and place cut side down on a baking sheet.
Roast the squash for 30-40 minutes until tender. Once done, use a fork to scrape the flesh into spaghetti-like strands and set aside.
While the squash is roasting, cook the turkey bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crisp. Remove from the skillet, crumble into bite-size pieces, and reserve the fat for flavor if desired.
In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, nonfat Greek yogurt, grated Parmesan, salt, and black pepper until smooth.
Combine the spaghetti squash strands with the crumbled turkey bacon in a pan over low heat. Remove the pan from the heat and quickly stir in the egg-yogurt mixture, tossing vigorously to create a creamy sauce that lightly cooks the eggs without scrambling them.
Adjust seasoning to taste and serve immediately, enjoying this balanced dish with a delightful mix of textures and rich flavors.
