    Fruit salad. Fruit salad is the answer to everything.

    I thought that was 42.

    Um...everything food related....

    so... 42 is life the univers and everything. and fruit salad - lightly tossed - is the answer to everything food related? do i have that right?

    So would a fruit salad made with 42 different fruits be the ultimate answer for everything?

    How about just the spaghetti? You have your meat, starch, tomatoes, etc. You could have a piece of fruit for dessert.

    I agree. Play up the meat in the spaghetti and finish off with a lite Italian ice or some fruit salad garnished with coconut and a drizzle of honey.

    I never cared for veggies alongside spaghetti. They always seemed so bland. But, you can puree them into the sauce.

    The OP was probably referring to other low carb options other than salad.

    Anyway, I like salad as a side with spaghetti, maybe a different type of salad than your use to. Personally I'm all over the roasted garlic butter and grilled rosemary focaccia, and a pint of red wine.

    Wow, so many great responses! You all gave me so many great ideas. I finally decided to use the spaghetti squash... thouroghly enjoyed that! It was delicious with the spaghetti sauce over it. I made the sauce with onions, mushrooms, finely chopped zucchini and lean ground beef. I am quite proud of myself for cutting out so many carbs and getting so many vegetables in me! I made regular pasta for my son and hubby. My son got done with his "regular spaghetti" and decided to taste mine. He liked it a lot... the hubby, not so much... lol!
