INGREDIENTS
1 cup cooked Spaghetti Squash (155g)
3 slices Turkey Bacon (75g)
1 large Egg (50g, poached)
1/4 cup grated Parmesan Cheese (22g)
1 serving (3 oz) Nonfat Greek Yogurt (85g)
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
Pinch of Garlic Powder
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F and slice the spaghetti squash in half lengthwise. Remove the seeds and drizzle lightly with salt.
Bake the squash cut side down on a parchment-lined tray for 35-40 minutes until tender. Once done, use a fork to create spaghetti-like strands.
While the squash cooks, cook the turkey bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crisp, then chop it into bite-sized pieces.
In a small bowl, whisk together the nonfat Greek yogurt, grated Parmesan cheese, a pinch of salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Warm the cooked spaghetti squash in a large mixing bowl, then mix in the crumbled turkey bacon.
Gently fold in the creamy yogurt mixture, then top with the poached egg. Break the yolk slightly to mix it through the warm squash for extra creaminess.
Serve immediately, enjoying the blend of textures and the rich yet healthy twist on traditional carbonara.
