INGREDIENTS
1 cup cooked Spaghetti Squash (155g)
3 slices Turkey Bacon (42g total)
2 large Eggs (100g total)
1/4 cup Grated Parmesan Cheese (28g)
1/3 cup Low-Fat Plain Greek Yogurt (80g)
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 little olive oil, and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Roast the squash halves face down on a baking sheet for about 35-40 minutes until the flesh is tender and can be easily shredded with a fork.
While the squash is roasting, chop the turkey bacon into small pieces. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the bacon. Sauté until it becomes crisp. Add the minced garlic during the last minute of cooking.
In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, Greek yogurt, and grated Parmesan cheese until well combined.
Once the spaghetti squash is done, use a fork to scrape out the strands into a large mixing bowl. Quickly pour the egg and yogurt mixture over the hot squash and toss immediately; the heat from the squash will gently cook the eggs, creating a creamy sauce.
Fold in the crispy turkey bacon pieces and drizzle with the remaining olive oil. Season with additional salt and pepper if needed.
Serve warm and enjoy your delicious, protein-packed creamy turkey bacon spaghetti squash carbonara.
