LOW CARB BAKED SPAGHETTI SQUASH WITH GARLIC SAGE CREAM
A few simple ingredients transform this mild tasting vegetable into a memorable side dish. My whole family loves this, even kids and at only 2 grams of carbs per serving it is a great dish to beat back the pasta craving! It tastes alot like spaghetti alfredo. I usually serve this with grilled chicken. My girlfriend passed this recipe on to me, I have no idea where it came from. If you are watching carbs it has a net carb count of only 2 grams per serving. For those doing Atkins, use the heavy cream, for those on SBD use milk and add a wee bit of thickener if needed. I hope you enjoy it as much as we do!

I know there are a lot of other spaghetti squash recipes posted here on Zaar, but I didn't see one quite like this. This recipe produces a rich, creamy, indulgent, savory, and wonderful casserole! You could serve it as a side dish, with fish, pork, or chicken. Or, serve with a side salad, and you've got a satisfyingly light meal. It's healthy, no matter how you slice it, and perfect for a low-carb diet.

BAKED SPAGHETTI SQUASH
This recipe is fun and delicious. Not to mention so easy! My mother is the one who taught me how to make it. Try it I promise you will like it if you like squash. We love this just plain However, it is great if you add a nice spaghetti sauce over it. I make a little sauce and load it with veggies and sausage and meatballs and place that on top of the squash.There are many ways you can serve it.
