Do you like Italian? Smother your spaghetti squash in tomato sauce.

Is mac and cheese hard to resist? Get some fat-free cheddar and a little fat-free cream cheese and you will barely miss the real thing.

How about some soup? Just load it up with spaghetti squash and you've got a hearty meal.

Shall we even talk about buttered noodles mixed with some parm? Heat up that squash with butter or spread with a few sprinkles of Parmesan and l promise you won't look back.

If pasta is doing you in like it was doing to me, then give this a try -- a great substitute and it's healthy and low in fat and calories. Bon Appetit.
