I figured out how to make low carb sauce but still had the challenge of how to enjoy this Italian delight without pasta noodles. Enter the Spaghetti Squash. This member of the melon family received its name because the Flesh strings apart after its cooked. You're not eating wheat in the form of pasta, instead, you're eating another vegetable!
Cut it half, clean out the seeds, rub it down with olive oil, place cut side down on a cookie sheet and bake at 350 degrees for about an hour or until it is tender.
Scrape out the insides and toss it with a little salt and butter or olive oil... Enjoy this gold string melon topped with your favorite low carb sauce!! Who knew veggies could be so good!!
Welcome to Appetite for Victory! My name is Amanda Mundy; allow me to encourage you to focus on victories through a healthy low-carb lifestyle. In 2011, I began a journey that led me to defeating diabetes, losing 55 pounds, exercising regularly and getting my overall health under control. I’ve set a new goal to lose another 55 pounds in 2012. If I’ve learned one thing over the last year, it’s that I have an Appetite for Victory and want to share it with you!

This is one of my favorite ways to eat pasta! I have also had pizza crust made out of spaghetti squash.
