I got this from another website and everyone in my family liked it. I thought it was delicious and very filling. I use the "Mexican style" type diced tomatoes. For a different taste, use Parmesan or low fat cheddar on top.

SERVES 4 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1 spaghetti squash (mine weighed three pounds when whole before cooking)
1 lb ground turkey breast
3 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 large onion, diced
1 green bell pepper, chopped
28 ounces diced tomatoes
salt and pepper
1 teaspoon italian seasoning
1 cup reduced-fat feta cheese

Directions

1
Pierce the squash in several places, put on a plate and microwave until tender (mine took about 20 minutes).
2
Allow cool while you cook the meat and veggie mixture.
3
Brown meat with garlic, onion, salt and pepper, and bell pepper.
4
Drain and add Italian spice and tomatoes.
5
If it seems really liquidy, cook some of the liquid off.
6
Cut the squash in half and scrape out the seeds and discard them.
7
Use a fork to scrape the spaghetti into strands and mix gently with sauce mix.
8
Transfer to a large casserole dish that has been sprayed with cooking spray.
9
Bake uncovered for 35 minutes at 350 degrees.
10
Sprinkle the cheese on top and bake 10-15 minutes more.

When my husband heard that I was making a South Beach Diet recipe for dinner, he was truly disappointed. But when he tasted it, WOW. He ate two servings and requested the leftovers for lunch! Awesome!

WOW! I left the Feta out to make it lower fat and cal. My hubby loves it, and this is an easy way to get vegetables down the kids.

This was AWESOME. I used a combo of shredded cheddar and mozzarella in place of the feta. The family loved it. Great way to get a few more veggies. I did find it a little watery but I used home canned tomatoes which tend to be a bit juicer then store bought

I love using spaghetti squash as a healthy and point friendly alternative to pasta and was instantly drawn to this one. I did an Italian styled version for 2 people and used a mix of lean ground turkey and Italian sausage seasoned veggie crumbles. Topped with a mix of reduced fat feta and mozzarella, it was a perfect comfort meal that was healthy to boot.
