INGREDIENTS
1 cup cooked Spaghetti Squash (155g)
3 slices Turkey Bacon (84g)
2 large Eggs
1/4 cup grated Parmesan Cheese (25g)
2 tablespoons Plain Low-Fat Greek Yogurt (30g)
1 Garlic Clove
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Cut the spaghetti squash in half, scoop out the seeds, drizzle lightly with salt and pepper, and place cut-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roast for about 35-40 minutes or until the flesh is tender and easily shredded with a fork.
While the squash roasts, lay the turkey bacon slices on another baking tray. Bake or pan-fry them until crispy, about 10-12 minutes. Once done, crumble into bite-sized pieces.
In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, plain low-fat Greek yogurt, and grated Parmesan cheese until smooth. Mince the garlic clove and stir it into the mixture. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Once the spaghetti squash is done, use a fork to shred the flesh into spaghetti-like strands. Transfer the squash to a large bowl.
Quickly pour the egg and yogurt mixture over the hot squash and gently toss to combine; the residual heat will slightly cook the eggs, creating a creamy sauce. Mix in the crumbled turkey bacon.
Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed, and serve immediately while warm.
