INGREDIENTS
1 cup Spaghetti Squash (~155g)
5 ounces Lean Ground Turkey (~140g)
1/2 cup Canned Diced Tomatoes (~125g)
1/4 cup chopped Yellow Onion (~40g)
2 cloves Garlic
1 tbsp Olive Oil
1/4 cup chopped Red Bell Pepper (~38g)
1 tsp Dried Oregano
1 tsp Dried Basil
Salt and Pepper, to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Cut the spaghetti squash in half lengthwise, remove the seeds, and drizzle a little olive oil with salt and pepper on the cut sides. Bake face down on a parchment-lined baking sheet for about 35-40 minutes until tender.
Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped yellow onion, red bell pepper, and garlic; sauté until softened and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the lean ground turkey to the skillet. Break it apart with a spatula and cook until browned and fully cooked, approximately 5-7 minutes.
Pour in the canned diced tomatoes, then add the dried oregano, dried basil, salt, and pepper. Stir well and let the sauce simmer on low heat for about 5-8 minutes to blend the flavors.
Once the spaghetti squash is done, use a fork to gently scrape out the flesh into strands, resembling spaghetti.
Serve the turkey meat sauce over the spaghetti squash strands, and enjoy your hearty, balanced meal.
