Weight Watchers Baked Spaghetti Squash Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 ripe spaghetti squash
- Non-fat cooking spray
- Kosher or salt and fresh pepper to taste
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
Directions:
Cut the squash in half lengthwise, scoop out the seeds and fibers with a spoon. Place on a baking sheet, cut side up, spray lightly with the non-fat cooking spray, and sprinkle with salt, pepper, paprika, onion powder, and garlic powder. Bake at 350° about an hour or until the skin gives easily under pressure and the inside is tender. Remove from oven and let it cool 10 minutes. Using a fork, scrape out the squash flesh a little at a time. It will separate into spaghetti-like strands. Place in a serving dish and serve hot. Total servings per recipe will vary depending on squash size.

Talking about squash,Aldis has butternut squash for 59c each this wk.So easy to fix.Just put it on a baking sheet & bake in pre heated 375* oven for 45-60 mins.You can use a sq of foil under,so pan doesn't need to be cleaned.
Cut baked squash in 1/2.....serve as is or with any toppings you have the calories for.Very much like a baked sweet potato.
I love squash.Reading this makes me want one!
