Title: Spaghetti Squash Chicken Alfredo
Post by: Amber on July 20, 2011, 09:35:11 PM

Cooked my 1st Spaghetti Squash tonight. One squash makes a lot! 
Alfredo sauce- 1 cup light sour cream, 1/2 cup mozzarella, 1/4 cup Parmesan, salt, pepper, garlic (optional). Cook medium/low heat until smooth and creamy. 
I poured some over individual serving of squash and added sauteed chicken. Pretty good.

Thanks all! I only like to cook easy things  :)  I had lots of squash that I didn't mix with Alfredo so tonight I mixed it with a little mayo, salt,pepper and leftover chicken (diced up) and a little green onion. Yummy, I will have this again  ;D

Umpa they have a wonderful tool ( I love little gadgets LOL) at bed bath and beyond that makes it easy to make "spaghetti" out of squash.  Have you seen these??  This baby is sharp (watch those fingers!!)  but makes julian slicing a snap!!  You can make some pretty garnishes with them too  ;D ;D

I have cooked the spaghetti squash once, and was totally AMAZED at how it comes out with a fork....looking like spaghetti!  I just laughed!  I had no idea this squash even existed prior to FTS.  Then I discovered that they actually serve it as a side in our local Ruby Tuesdays.
