When "BETTER THAN SPAGHETTI" tastes THIS good, why would anyone ever want to eat pasta again! (That's what I'm calling the recipe I just created. Pictured is half of recipe. To make sauce, I used 1-1/2 cups Rao's Low Carb Tomato Basil Pasta Sauce; 1/4 cup cooked, diced onion; 6 oz cooked, crumbled bulk sausage; and 20 black olives torn in half. (I didn't even add any other seasonings!) I'll most definitely be re-figuring this recipe using "normal" quantities of the ingredients, but that was what I had on hand!

What you see in the picture is HALF the recipe on 200g of Spaghetti Squash. To make Spaghetti Squash, find one that is darker yellow or orangish. Wash the outside. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cut in half lengthwise. Remove seeds (as you would from a pumpkin). Place on a baking sheet (cut side UP) on middle rack of oven. Baste top of squash with Olive Oil or Avocado Oil (which I used) and sprinkle with salt. Bake for 45-50 minutes. When done, just use a fork to "string" the spaghetti out of the shell. It was so FUN, that 4 of us had to try out hand at doing in!

Also pictured is KETO GARLIC BREAD. I just took one of my Keto Rolls and cut it into 4 slices. I melted 1 Tbsp butter and brushed it evenly onto each piece. Then, I divided evenly among the pieces 2 Tbsp. Parmesiana-Reggiana, 1 Tbsp regular grated parmesan, 28 g. of shredded mozarella, a generous sprinklingh of Dried Parsley Flakes, onion powder, garlic salt and pepper to taste. Then, I put them on a rack in a small pan and cooked in my Breville toaster oven for 7-8 minutes until beautifully golden brown.

NOTICE: I even used a different plate for my picture because this was such a special meal!!!
