Subject: low cal spaghetti alternative
I cook for my husband every night, and he likes pretty traditional stuff, meat and potatoes, etc. He works outside and moves constantly, so has no weight problem to speak of. I, on the other hand, am trying to lose the 20 lbs that I've gained since we met 3 years ago, and I've been trying to find ways to modify "traditional" recipes, at least in part, so that they are edible for me. Now I'm not going all low carb or anything, but I am trying to replace as much as possible with veggies. Last night I made spaghetti, but for me instead of eating pasta with the sauce, I baked a spaghetti squash. It was delicious! About 1/3 of a normal sized squash was plenty, that and broccoli and meat sauce with lots of veggies was my dinner and it was very satisfying, but under 300 cals. I will post more of my "altered recipes" as I think of them.
