I tried Spaghetti Squash

[TracyNYC 4]

After watching "Hungry Girl" do a whole show on Pasta Swaps, I finally went and bought Spaghetti Squash.

I steamed it in microwave for 10 minutes after cutting it in half. I used Amy's Organic creamy Tomato Soup about 3/4 can, and 4 Light LC cheese wedges and 2 tbsp of FF sour cream and made a creamy Tomato sauce. I added RF parm on top. I pulled the "spaghetti" from the skin and mixed in my sauce.

I have to say it was good! It makes a lot too. I could throw chicken on top or Turkey meatballs and have a really nice meal.

Low carb, Low fat and filling. This was sort of a combination of HG ideas and it was very good. I like the Soup as a base as it is sweet and I prefer that.

Glad you liked it Tracy!!! I haven't had it in a while but have made it similar to how you did. Love HG too!!!

Sounds pretty good. Suggest substituting PLAIN (not flavored) low or no fat greek yogurt for the FF sour cream. Tastes almost the same and more Protein.< /p>

Glad you liked it! I could kick myself becasue I specifically went food shopping today with getting the squash in mind and I forgot to get it!! DUH!!!!!

Good idea with the yogurt to up Protein. I even fed it to my 9 year old niece and she liked it. She asked why the Sgetti was crunchy. I told her I can't make Pasta too soft b/c of my band. LOL
