Thumbs up Chicken Spaghetti Squash Alfredo

This the frist time my husband and I have ever tried Spaghetti Squash, we were a bit weary of it, but it turned out great! And have since added it to our weekly menu!

Chicken Spaghetti Squash Alfredo

2 cups cooked spaghetti squash
3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons heavy cream
1 clove crushed garlic
1/4 cup grated or shredded Parmesan cheese
Package oven roasted chicken, or some of your own.

Stab the spaghetti squash several times with a fork (to keep it from exploding) and put it in the microwave on high for about 15 to 25 minutes. Depending on the size of the squash and how powerful your microwave is. Then slice through it and open, scoop out the seeds. Take a fork and start scraping at the meat (spaghetti) of the squash.

Stir in butter, cream and garlic, and cheese. When butter is melted add warmed chicken! And that is it!

4 servings, with 4 grams of carbs a servings.


I usually get more than two cups of spaghetti from the squash, extra will hold 3 to 4 days in fridge!

MMMMMMMmmmmmmm . Thanx for posting the delicious sounding recipe, I also love the stuff but am running out of ideas. Usually I just use it like real spagetti with spagetti sauce over it. When I cook it I only do half at a time, I cut it in half, stab the skin and put it face down in a bowl with a little water. But I am the only one here who likes it so I get 4 large meals out of 1 squash.

Thanx again I will be trying it as soon as I can get a spagetti squash!!!!
