TracyNYC 4 Posted January 16, 2011 When I do the mashed cauliflower, I throw in a scoop or 2 of instant mashed flakes to help the consistency. Looking for low carb flakes, but will have to travel to whole foods for them I think. I doctor them up with FF shredded cheeses and some garlic. I even had some cooked turkey bacon and put that on top like a "loaded" baked potato. Pretty good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bamamom 1 Posted January 16, 2011 Thats funny that you posted about Cabbage Spagetti... I had lunch at a small cafe called Zoe's Kitchen and they had a protien plate that came with a grilled chicken breast on what they called slaw, but it was cut and looked like spagetti... I can't quit talking about how delicious it was... Now I can't wait to cook it a little bit and serve it with spag. sauce!!! Yummy!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Acadia 20 Posted January 16, 2011 In Canada we call this a version of Lazy Man's Cabbage Rolls. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mattie7632 24 Posted January 16, 2011 Wow, that's funny! Because I said to my husband that it kind of tasted like my mom's recipe of stuffed peppers, which also included the hamburger mixture inside rolled cabbage!! I don't know if it was Tomato or spaghetti sauce or what on top, but it was good, and so is this!! In Canada we call this a version of Lazy Man's Cabbage Rolls.

GavynsMum 1 Posted January 17, 2011 Oh my! All of this sounds delicious. Must try the cabbage since I absolutely love stuffed cabbage. The spaghetti squash was yummy and easy to make. Also, for those of you who like pizza should make eggplant pizza. Bake slices of panko coated eggplant, top with marinara and mozerella and bake for additional five minutes. The outside of the eggplants is crunch and the inside is warm and goey. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GavynsMum 1 Posted January 17, 2011 Also, we baked the mashed cauliflower and used light cream cheese, parmesan, and garlic instead of milk. Baking it helped get rid of some of the moisture and made the top crunchy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

isaviolinist 11 Posted January 17, 2011 Just wanted to let everyone know, I made the spaghetti squash spaghetti for dinner tonight and it was AMAZING!!! I just baked the squash whole for a little over an hour in the oven, then scooped out the squash, tossed it in a skillet with my favorite veggie Tomato sauce and then topped the dish with a little bit of skim mozzarella and fresh parmesan. Wow. So amazing! I still have half a squash leftover and I think I'll make spaghetti squash macaroni-less "mac and cheese" with it tomorrow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spaghetti squash is a staple in my diet now. I eat it with chicken and alfredo sauce when I'm not in the mood for spaghetti! I've even used it in stir-fry. FYI. To cut down on the cooking time you can put it in Water upside down in the microwave for 4-5 mins or until the skin is soft to touch or when you can stick a fork through it.
