Recipe Introduction
Serving Size : 4
List of Ingredients
1 small spaghetti squash
8 slices bacon
8 ounces grated cheddar cheese
salt and pepper
Recipe
Cut the squash in half lengthwise. Scoop out and discard the seeds.
Place skin side up in a baking dish and add about 1" of water. Bake
until the skin begins to give, about 40 minutes. Carefully pour out
the water. Set aside to cool slightly.
In a large skillet over medium heat, fry the bacon until crisp.
Drain on paper towels. Crumble.
Using a large fork, scoop the squash out of its skin, pulling it into
long strands. Place in a large mixing bowl. Combine with the bacon,
cheese, and salt/pepper. Mix well.
Return the mixture to the baking dish and bake until the cheese
melts, about five minutes. Serve hot.

NOTES : This was excellent, easy to make, very low-carb and
inexpensive. I think it would make a very nice dish to bring to a
potluck. I think it would be just as good, or better, with diced ham
instead of bacon.
