\"Pressure<\/p>\n

Kristen, Dine and Dish<\/a>, started a DietBet challenge this past month and invited me and other food bloggers to join her. I accepted the challenge and I’ve been super motivated to lose a little bit of weight. One of my favorite low calorie substitutes is substituting spaghetti squash for pasta. A cup of spaghetti squash has only 42 calories compared to about 220 calories for a cup of spaghetti.<\/p>\n

Last time I posted a spaghetti squash recipe<\/a> a reader suggested cooking the spaghetti squash whole. Then after it’s cooked, it’s easier to cut the squash in half and scrap out the seeds. I used that technique this time and it was so much easier.You do need to cook the squash a couple of minutes longer though.<\/p>\n

\"Spaghetti<\/p>\n

I topped the spaghetti squash with roasted balsamic cherry tomatoes. I used red and yellow tomatoes because the yellow ones looked so tasty at the market, but feel free to use whatever you like.<\/p>\n

Some of my family don’t love spaghetti squash even though it has a very mild taste. So for them, this time I mixed the spaghetti squash with a little pasta. If you look closely at the picture, you can see a little linguine peeking out. Angel hair pasta would have been my first choice, but I didn’t have it in the pantry. My daughter liked it better mixed with the pasta, and said she couldn’t really taste the spaghetti squash served this way. Either way, it’s a great way not only to cut calories, but also boost the nutrition of your meal.<\/p>\n
