Faux Pizza
So last night for dinner we had faux pizza and D said it should go on the top of my recipes. So here it goes.
Ingredients:
4 cups spaghetti squash
1 egg
1/4 cup grated Parmesan Cheese
1/2 cup tomato sauce
1 cup mushrooms
1 red pepper
8 oz ground turkey
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Directions:
1. Cook 1 spaghetti squash (I poke several times with a knife and microwave whole for 10 minutes). Cut open, clean seeds from center and discard.
2. Scrape flesh into a bowl and let cool for a bit. Add 1 egg, 1/4 cup grated Parmesan Cheese, and salt and pepper to taste and mix well.
3. Spray a pie plate or shallow casserole with non stick spray and spread spaghetti squash mixture to form a thick “crust”. Bake at 400 until the crust begins to brown, approx 30-45 minutes minutes.
4. Top with 1/2 cup marinara sauce or tomato sauce, and any pizza-type toppings you desire (veggies, turkey pepperoni, sausage, olives). Finish off with 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese, and 1/8 cup grated Parmesan. Bake an additional 20 mins. until the cheese is melty and bubbly and beginning to brown.
5. Cut into wedges and serve. Serves 4 generously.
I got this recipet from the fabulous people at 3fatchicks South Beach Forum.
