Spaghetti squash

This was my first time trying out spaghetti squash! It really tastes almost like normal noodles except it is just a harder texture. It is very tasty! I made this vegetarian from the original recipe by omitting the chicken from it. This version has sundried tomatoes, peas, and broccoli. This is not a weight watchers recipe though!

Ingredients:

• 1 medium size spaghetti squash (about 2lb)
• 1/3 cup sundried tomatoes, chopped
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 cup frozen peas
• 1 broccoli crown, chopped
• 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
• 1 cup chicken broth
• grated parmesan cheese (about 1/4 cup)
• salt/pepper, to taste

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

2. With a sharp knife, carefully cut the spaghetti squash in half lengthwise. Scrape/remove seeds with a spoon. Place squash halves cut side down on a baking sheet; bake for 45 minutes. Let squash cool.

3. Using a fork, scrape the inside of the squash to remove strands.

4. In a large, deep skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add garlic. Saute one minute, then add spaghetti squash and saute an additional 2 minutes. Salt and pepper to taste.

5. Add 1/4 cup of chicken broth, sundried tomatoes, and broccoli. Saute 5 minutes.

6. Add peas, and remaining 3/4 cup chicken broth. Shake about 1/4 cup parmesan cheese into mixture (just enough to thicken the chicken broth).

7. Reduce heat to medium-low. Cover skillet and simmer for about 3 minutes.

8. Serve with fresh shaved parmesan cheese.
