Ingredients:

  1. 1 Medium Spaghetti Squash

  2. 4 Teaspoon Olive Oil, Divided

  3. 1 Teaspoon Salt, Divided

  4. 1 Teaspoon Pepper, Divided

  5. 2 Teaspoon Garlic, Minced

  6. 1 Pound of 95-97% Lean Ground Turkey

  7. 1-14.5 Ounces Can Diced Tomatoes

  8. 1/2 Teaspoon Onion Powder

  9. 1 Teaspoon Basil, Divided

  10. 1 Teaspoon Whole Leaf Oregano, Divided

  11. 1/2 Cup Part-Skim Ricotta

  12. 1/2 Cup 1% Cottage Cheese

  13. 1 Teaspoon Red Pepper Flakes, Crushed

  14. 1 Cup Low-Fat Mozzarella, Shredded

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Prepare the spaghetti squash. Cut in half, and remove seeds and pulp strands. Rub one teaspoon of olive oil into each squash half and season each with one-quarter teaspoon each of salt and pepper. Place each spaghetti squash half face down in a large baking dish and bake for 40 to 60 minutes, until the middle is tender and pulls apart easily. Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, saute garlic in remaining olive oil over medium heat until fragrant. Add turkey. Season with one-quarter teaspoon each of salt and pepper, and cook until browned. Add tomatoes, onion powder, and one-half teaspoon each of basil and oregano. When the sauce starts to bubble, reduce heat to a simmer until thickened about three to four minutes. Combine ricotta and cottage cheese in a medium bowl. Season with crushed red pepper flakes and remaining basil, oregano, salt, and pepper. Lightly mix until combined. When spaghetti squash is fully cooked, flip in the baking dish so that it is now skin-side down. Lightly scrape the flesh with a fork to create spaghetti-like strands. Evenly divide the ricotta mixture between each squash half. Repeat with meat sauce. Top each half with one-half cup of mozzarella cheese. Turn oven to broil, and cook for additional two minutes, until cheese is browned and bubbling. Serve immediately.


Tip:

Squash is a good source of Vitamin A, C, and B. Squash is rich in minerals including potassium, and magnesium.
