INGREDIENTS
1 cup cooked Spaghetti Squash (155g)
3 slices Turkey Bacon (60g)
1 Whole Egg (50g)
1 Egg White (33g)
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt (62g)
1 tbsp Grated Parmesan Cheese (5g)
1 tsp Olive Oil (5g)
1 Garlic Clove (3g)
1 tbsp Fresh Parsley
PREPARATION
Preheat a skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Slice the spaghetti squash in half, remove the seeds, and roast or microwave until tender, then scrape the flesh into spaghetti-like strands.
Crisp the turkey bacon in the skillet until it’s nicely browned. Once cooked, crumble or chop the bacon into bite-sized pieces.
In a bowl, whisk together the whole egg, egg white, nonfat Greek yogurt, and grated Parmesan cheese. Finely mince the garlic and add it to the mixture.
Toss the warm spaghetti squash with the bacon pieces to evenly distribute the flavors.
Pour the creamy egg mixture over the squash and bacon, stirring quickly to ensure a silky, creamy sauce without scrambling the eggs.
Season with salt and pepper to taste and garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
