Loaded Turkey Spaghetti Squash with Roasted Veggie Sauce – This is the chunky secret sauce... 🙂
One with green onions and one without. 🙂
Both are tasty!
4. While spaghetti squash and mixed vegetable topping is cooking, brown turkey with a drizzle of olive oil and 1/4 cup water.
Optional: (pair with mushrooms & cook together, with 3/4 cup of water instead)
(To Make Plant Based/Vegan, remove meat and add extra mushrooms)
5. Once roasted vegetables for sauce are cooked, allow to cool to lukewarm.
Place in blender, with a very quick pulse blend. (keep chunky consistency)
Tip: This will be about 1-2 “quick” pulses with the blender.
6. Carefully spoon or fork the spaghetti squash away from the shell.
The roasted spaghetti squash will be hot to touch, so be extra careful. (allow to cool for a few, before rotating over)
7. Carefully fork the spaghetti squash away from the shell.
Layer turkey inside spaghetti squash.
Top freshly ground chunky veggie topping as the “sauce”.
Enjoy!! You may also, scrape the “noodles” out and plate it that way.
However, I think this way, is a fun way to eat!
Looking for a Dairy-Free Grated Cheese?
I prefer, cashew grated cheese “Nooch It” as a healthy alternative to parmesan cheese. It’s good!!
