Low Carb Noodle Pudding image

I LOVE noodle pudding, not being Jewish I had no good family recipes for it but being from NY I DID have some great delis, and ate more than my share of it. Which is why I now need to make a low carb version :) This uses spaghetti squash instad of noodles. I took a recipe I had and tweaked it. Let me know how you like it. Its not the real deal but its close. Enjoy

Time 1h40m

Yield 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 medium spaghetti squash
5 eggs
1 lb 2% fat cottage cheese, not fat free
8 ounces neufchatel cheese, Philadelphia's
3/4 cup Splenda granular (pouch not packets)
1/2 cup low carb French vanilla flavored coffee creamer, its usually in the milk area of supermarkets
3/4 cup raisins
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (or more)
3/4 cup butter, melted
1 cup vanilla Special K cereal
butter-flavored cooking spray (I use "I can't believe its not butter")

Steps:

  • Cook the squash by placing in boiling water for about 20-30 minutes - let cool.
  • Pre-heat oven to 350.
  • After squash has cooled cut open and take out the insides using a fork.
  • Mix the squash with the next 8 ingredients, and place in a 9X12 pan sprayed with the butter spray.
  • In a small bowl spray some butter sray on the cereal, crunch it a bit with your fingers and sprinkle over the pudding.
  • Bake for about 1 hour 20 minutes, you may have to place foil over the top towards the end so the cereal doesn't get too crispy. Check for doneness by inserting a sharp knife in the center, it should come out clean. Remove from oven and let get to room temp or refrigerate and serve cold, either way it is yummy and an interesting way to use spaghetti squash.
  • prep time includes the cooking of the squash.

MOCK NOODLE KUGEL (USING SPAGHETTI SQUASH; LOW-CARB, FAT-FREE)



Mock Noodle Kugel (Using Spaghetti Squash; Low-Carb, Fat-Free) image

I based this recipe on one I found in Nechama Cohen's "Enlitened Kosher Cooking." I chose the sweet variation, so that's what I'm posting; but if you want a savory kugel, leave out the Splenda, cinnamon and nutmeg and replace it with one peeled, sliced medium onion and two peeled, minced cloves of garlic sauteed in a tablespoon of olive oil. Don't be deterred by the cooking time -- most of it is spent waiting for the squash to cool, or the kugel to bake!

1 (2 lb) spaghetti squash
2 eggs
2 egg whites
salt and pepper, to taste
1/4 cup Splenda granular (sugar substitute)
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg

Steps:

  • Prepare the spaghetti squash: split it in half and remove the seeds and strings. Place the halves cut-side down in 1/4 c water, cover with plastic wrap, and microwave for seven to ten minutes or until the flesh is soft. Allow to cool.

  • Using a fork, scrape the flesh out of the squash halves. Place the "spaghetti" in a large bowl.
  • Lightly beat the eggs and egg whites; add them, along with the rest of the ingredients, to the bowl with the squash. Mix well with a wooden spoon.
  • Pour into the prepared pan and lighting spray the top with non-stick cooking spray. Bake for 10 minutes at 400, then lower the heat to 350 and bake for another 30 minutes, until the kugel starts to turn a bit golden.
