Are you looking for a delicious way to improve your health and take control of your habits? This low-carb spaghetti squash recipe is not only packed with flavor but also helps you "carb correct" by choosing the right carbs that fuel performance and fight inflammation. Paired with chicken, bacon, and a rich parmesan cream sauce, this dish will satisfy your cravings while keeping your health on track.

            Ingredients: (Feeds 2 people)

  • 1 spaghetti squash
  • 2 chicken breasts, chopped
  • 4 strips of bacon
  • 1/2 cup parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • Salt & pepper (to taste)
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder

         

          Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Cut the spaghetti squash in half, scoop out the seeds, and place it skin-side up on a baking sheet. Bake for about 50 minutes, or until the flesh is soft enough to shred into spaghetti-like strands.
  2. While the squash bakes, cook the bacon in a pan until crispy. Remove and chop into pieces.
  3. In the same pan with the bacon grease, cook the chicken until it has a golden-brown crust, then chop into bite-sized pieces.
  4. In a saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Stir in the parmesan cheese, heavy cream, garlic powder, salt, and pepper, stirring frequently until a smooth sauce forms.
  5. Once the spaghetti squash is cooked, remove the flesh with a fork, season with salt and pepper, and place it on a plate.
  6. Top the squash with the golden-brown chicken, then drizzle the parmesan cream sauce generously over the top. Finish with bacon crumbles, more salt and pepper to taste.
  7. Enjoy a low-carb meal that helps you "carb correct" and boosts your health one bite at a time!

          Why It Works:


This dish is perfect for reducing inflammation and supporting metabolic health. Spaghetti squash provides a nutritious, lower-carb alternative to pasta, while chicken gives you lean protein to help repair muscle and keep you satisfied. The parmesan cream sauce offers a rich, comforting flavor, and with bacon on top, you get the indulgence you crave without compromising your health goals.
