Spaghetti squash is a popular alternative to traditional pasta due to its low calorie and high fiber content. When cooked, the flesh of the squash separates into spaghetti-like strands, creating a lighter and healthier option for your favorite pasta dishes. When combined with fire-roasted tomatoes, asparagus, onion, garlic, and feta cheese, this dish is packed with flavor and nutrition. Unlike many high-carb pasta dishes, this recipe will keep you satisfied and energized all day long. Serve as a side dish or a main course.
