Spaghetti Squash Noodles

One of the most popular gluten-free noodles is spaghetti squash noodles. Spaghetti squash is a winter squash but can be found in many places throughout most spring months. They can taste like authentic noodles when cooked properly, and are oh-so-yummy. They are low in carbs and high in nutrients. As a vegetable, squash is low in carbs and high in antioxidants, fiber, vitamins, and minerals. It only has 42 calories per cup.

To begin, you cut the squash in half and roast it cut-side down in the oven. You can brush it with oil before cooking. Cooking time is approximately 45-60 minutes. When it's tender, you run a fork through the cooked flesh to create noodle-like strands. You take the cooked noodles and combine them with your preferred sauce. You can make a cheesy spaghetti squash casserole, an enchilada boat, or any other dish you want.
