Keto Spaghetti Squash 101
Spaghetti squash is low carb, low calorie, and nutrient-dense winter veggie- packed with vitamin C, B6, and beta carotene. It’s also a good source of fiber which you need for digestion
Now you may know spaghetti squash as a go-to low carb swap for pasta – and that holds up in court:
Spaghetti Squash has 10 grams of carbs per cup – with 2.2 grams of fiber – that’s 7.8 net carbs for those of you still reading.
Compare that to spaghetti’s 40 grams of carbs per cup, and you can see why spaghetti squash recipes are popping up everywhere:)
With that in mind, I’m sharing a few favorite keto spaghetti squash recipes that make pasta swaps actually taste good and a few that go beyond the noodle. I’m starting with three ways to cook it:
- Instant Pot
- Crock Pot
- Oven
Just in case you are new – followed by a fabulous line-up of recipes you need to try!
