This dish marries classic comfort with a lighter twist, perfect for a satisfying and balanced meal.
INGREDIENTS
1 cup cooked Spaghetti Squash (155g)
4 slices Turkey Bacon (80g)
1 large Egg (50g)
1 ounce grated Parmesan Cheese (28g)
1/4 cup Low-Fat Milk (60g)
1 clove Garlic (3g)
1/4 medium Onion (25g)
1 tbsp Fresh Parsley (3g)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Cut the spaghetti squash in half lengthwise, remove the seeds, and place cut-side down on a baking sheet. Roast until tender, about 30-35 minutes.
While the squash roasts, heat a skillet over medium heat and add the turkey bacon. Cook until crispy, then remove, let cool slightly, and chop into bite-sized pieces.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg, low-fat milk, and grated parmesan cheese. Set aside.
Finely mince the garlic and chop the onion. In a separate pan, lightly sauté the garlic and onion until fragrant and translucent.
Once the spaghetti squash is done, use a fork to scrape out strands into a large bowl. Add the crispy turkey bacon and sautéed garlic and onion.
Quickly stir in the egg mixture into the warm squash and bacon, tossing rapidly so the residual heat gently cooks the egg, creating a creamy sauce. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.
