Receta Spaghetti squash: like or dislike?

by Lydia (The Perfect Pantry)

Welcome to Like or Dislike, where you get to share how you really feel about ingredients from the pantry, ingredients I'm thinking about adding to my pantry, other seasonal foods, even favorite cooking gear. The things you like are sure to find their way to the recipes here on The Perfect Pantry, so do tell.

With the start of the new year comes the start of a new diet. Low fat, low carbs, low calorie: I'm okay with all of that, as long as we're also not resigning ourselves to low in flavor. Spaghetti squash figures prominently in my January menu plans. No, it's not pasta, but you can sauce it up the same way you'd sauce your favorite pasta dishes. Add meatballs, red sauce, white clams and garlic, veggies, lots of (low fat) cheese. It's all good. I like to use my electric pressure cooker to do the basic cooking; you can make spaghetti squash in a slow cooker, on the stovetop, or in the oven, too.

Last week: champagne. More takers for sparkling wine, but most wouldn't turn down a glass of good champagne on a special occasion!
