The traditional spaghetti bread braid was too carb heavy for even me, a super carb lover, so I made a healthy alternative with spaghetti squash.

Steps:
- Pierce spaghetti squash with a fork 10 times and place whole in a slow cooker. Cook on Low until very soft, about 4 hours. Halve squash and remove seeds.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Unroll pizza dough onto a greased baking sheet.
- Scrape squash flesh into a bowl; mix in spaghetti sauce, ground beef, and zucchini. Spread squash mixture lengthwise down the middle of the dough. Top with cubed mozzarella cheese.
- Cut sides of dough into even strips starting at the outside edges and stopping at the squash mixture. Fold alternating strips over squash mixture to form a braid. Brush with beaten egg and sprinkle with parsley.
- Bake in the preheated oven until dough is brown and cheese is melted, about 30 minutes. Cool for 5 to 10 minutes before slicing.
