    I stir fry cooked spaghetti squash with eggs and green onion for a breakfast type meal. Or toss it with cooked tomato and basil (simple).

    Winter squash soup...

    My favorite squash is sweetmeat, delicata, butternut and acorn. Sweetmeat is huge so I dont buy it unless I plan to freeze a ton.

    i love it, but its so hard for me to find it here in Fl , has anyone tried the spaghetti squash lasagna?? i haven't , i was just wondering if anyone has. its one of the best low calorie filling food that i know off, usually 1 cup is only 15 calories.

    Southwestern Spaghetti Squash

    Ingredients
    1 spaghetti squash ( 3 pounds)
    1 (14 ounce) cans Mexican-style tomatoes, undrained
    1 (14 ounce) cans black beans, drained and rinsed
    3/4 cup monterey jack cheese, divided
    1/4 cup cilantro, finely chopped
    1 teaspoon ground cumin
    1/4 teaspoon garlic salt
    1/4 teaspoon black pepper

    Directions
    Preheat oven to 350°F.
    Cut squash in half lengthwise.
    Remove and discard seeds.
    Place squash, cut side down, in greased baking pan.
    Bake 45 minutes to 1 hour or until just tender.
    Using fork, remove spaghetti-like strands from hot squash and place strands in large bowl.
    Add tomatoes with juice, beans, 1/2 cup cheese, cilantro, cumin, garlic salt and pepper; toss well.
    Spray 1 1/2 quart casserole with nonstick cooking spray.
    Spoon mixture into casserole.
    Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup cheese.
    Bake uncovered, 30 to 35 minutes or until heated through.
    Serve immediately

    Great Recipe!
    I made this the other night but instead of mixing in cheese to the casserole, I used about 1/2 cup of low fat sour cream so it was a little more creamy. It was delicious! Ended up giving the recipe to 2 co-workers when they saw me eating it at lunch :)

    I just had a bowl of spaghetti squash for lunch topped with tomato-basil pasta sauce and a few veggie meatballs. Yum!!

    Wow that sounds amazing.

    I had to Google spaghetti squash. I love Yellow squash and eat that quite often with zuccini. I usually sautee it in a little coconut oil with pepper, garlic, and Old Bay seasoning.

    All these recipes and I am hungry now.

    Mine is super easy but yummy. I dice it or slice it, cook it in some olive oil then let it simmer and cook down. I add some seasoning and a little I can't believe it's not butter (Yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm)

    2 cups or so cooked and "strung" spaghetti squash
    1 can drained tuna
    1 oz mozzerellla (I use a string cheese)
    1 oz cheddar
    1 tbs parmesan
    2 strips bacon
    .5 cup greek yogurt OR one egg
    Chives (optional)
    Garlic powder (optional)

    Mix everything, make into patties and fry in the bacon grease, cocunut oil, or a little cooking spray. Makes 4 patties (2 servings)

    If you want a bigger recipe, double the squash (about 2/3 of a large one)
    1 can salmon
    Double all of the ingredients
    And add a splash of liquid smoke (optional)
    Makes 8 patties (4 servings)

    This tastes really rich and like you are cheating! When I made the salmon one with 5 strips of bacon and full fat greek yogurt, a serving of two pretty big patties turned out to be ~350 calories total. YUM!

    Sounds VERY interesting. I have most of these ingredient and always on the prowl for new things to do with tuna. Thanks for sharing!
