and this was tonight’s dinner: spinach spaghetti squash bake.
the stuff:
- 1 shallot
- 1 yellow onion
- 2 cups of 2% or low/no fat mozzarella shredded cheese
- 1 log 99% lean ground turkey
- 1 bag frozen spinach
- 2 chopped tomatoes OR 1 can diced tomatoes
- 1 red pepper
- 1 can Amy’s low sodium chunky tomato bisque
- 1 spaghetti squash
- salt, pepper, tony’s c’s to taste
do this:
first and foremost, turn on your oven (350 deg) and throw the squash in there. it needs to cook at least 45 min first. in the meantime,
brown your shallots, onion, and turkey in a pan, and season it with the salt, pepper, and tony c’s.
chop up all your veggies and toss them in.
microwave the spinach for about 5 minutes, then put it in a colander and press all the water out. add.
finally, pour in the soup.
grab your pan(s) and start with the squash- that’ll be your 1st layer.
then, meat sauce.
and finally, my fav, plenty of cheese. now, repeat until you run outta stuff. remember to top it with cheese!
ready after 15-20 min in a 350 deg oven. so good, so healthy, so light, so filling.
we killed this pan but thank goodness i made two. hitting the sack NOW- weights class in the early am!

Le, umm I’m gonna try this treadmill workout on sunday. *GULP* You already know how I feel about getting on that dang machine *eye roll* but I also love a challenge so we’ll seeeeee
That recipe looks DELISH!!! MUST TRY!!! Mmmmm cheeeeeeseeeee lol 
you know i can’t stand that machine either LOL. the ONLY reason i did it is cause it was raining:( i was so ready to hit the pavement. aaah well. the workout is challenging alright- that incline is an ugly BEAST! enjoy the recipe my dear!!!
Loving the blog!! I keep telling my friends about it and utilizing some of those recipes. Will be trying the bake. If you’re pressed for time, the spaghetti squash can be cooked in the microwave. Cut it in half, put each half face down in a 1/4 cup of water in a microwaveable dish for 10 minutes and its done!
Will also have to try your interval workout. I do one already but not on this level. Gotta get it right!!
the microwave is def my BFF when pressed for time- great tip, Amber! i pop my sweet potatoes in there too, but i loooooove the roasted flavor you get from the oven though!
I just found your blog and I like it. Love the easy steps of the recipes. I’m trying to loose weight and I think your site will be the on e I will follow to achieve it!!
hi Jemina!!! i am THRILLED you like what you see! keep reading- you are well on your way to reaching those goals and i’ll do my best to help you get there!
Hi. I’m trying this recipe today. Just wondering, did you use a fork to scrape the insides out of the squash? Thanks!
hey Tameka!! girl i prolly used a spoon LOL, but a fork would work great.
