INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Spaghetti Squash
1 cup Fresh Spinach
2 oz Low-Fat Cream Cheese
1 oz Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Mixed Dried Herbs
1 Garlic Clove
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Slice the spaghetti squash in half lengthwise and remove seeds. Place cut-side down on a baking sheet and roast for about 30 minutes or until tender.
Meanwhile, season the chicken breast with salt, pepper, and the mixed dried herbs. In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat and sauté the minced garlic until fragrant. Add the chicken and cook until golden and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per side. Once cooked, shred or dice the chicken into bite-sized pieces.
When the squash is ready, use a fork to gently scrape out the strands and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Add the fresh spinach, low-fat cream cheese, and part-skim mozzarella to the bowl with the spaghetti squash. Stir in the cooked chicken and mix until the cream cheese melts slightly, creating a light, creamy coating.
Transfer the mixture into a lightly greased baking dish and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, until the cheeses have fully blended and the top is lightly golden.
Serve warm and enjoy your balanced, comforting meal.
