PRIMAVERA SPAGHETTI SQUASH RECIPE BY TASTY



Primavera Spaghetti Squash Recipe by Tasty image

When baked in the oven, the inside of spaghetti squash takes on a noodle-like texture, making it a perfect low-carb alternative to your favorite pasta recipe. And this creamy primavera recipe takes spaghetti squash to the next level. The squash is loaded with vegetables like mushroom, broccoli, and asparagus, then it's tossed with a creamy parmesan mixture, which you can also make dairy-free.

Time 1h5m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 spaghetti squash
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon garlic
½ cup onion, diced
1 cup mushroom, sliced
1 cup broccoli florets
1 cup asparagus, chopped
½ cup squash, sliced
½ cup cherry tomato, halved
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
½ cup milk, or milk alternative
¼ cup vegetarian parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons lemon juice

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400ºF (200ºC).
  • With a sharp knife, slice the squash in half. If the squash is too tough, puncture in several places forming a dotted line around the squash. Microwave for 3-5 minutes to soften. Allow to cool before cutting in half.
  • Scoop out the seeds, brush with oil, and sprinkle with salt, and pepper. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a fork can easily pierce the skin.
  • Meanwhile, in a pan combine oil, garlic, and onion over medium heat, and sautè until onions are translucent.
  • Add mushrooms and cook for 3 minutes. Add the broccoli, asparagus, squash, tomatoes, salt, and pepper and cook until almost cooked through.
  • Add the milk/ milk alternative until warmed through. Add the vegetarian Parmesan and mix until evenly spread throughout vegetables. Add the lemon juice and stir to combine.
  • Remove squash from the oven, with a fork pull at the edges to produce that stringy "spaghetti" quality.
  • In the pan combine "spaghetti" with vegetables. Return to the squash and top with Parmesan.
  • Enjoy!

VEGAN PASTA PRIMAVERA (LOW CARB)



Vegan Pasta Primavera (Low Carb) image

I'm a real pasta lover and had the craving again! So I put together this for my lunch. I used the low carb Dreamfield's pasta in this recipe, that way I don't feel like I'm having a carb. overload. I used dried herbs as I didn't have fresh. Instead of Sangria you can use red wine.

VEGAN PASTA PRIMAVERA



Vegan Pasta Primavera image

The sauce is slightly creamy and rich, yet light. If you don't tell, no one will guess it's vegan. It's good even a couple days later. VARIATION: Instead of vegan no-chicken broth and coconut milk, you can use 3-1/2 cups plain soy milk. Modified from The Compassionate Cook cookbook.
