Ingredients

  1. spaghetti squash - 1 medium (1 medium-sized, halved and seeded)
  2. salt - to taste (to season the inside of the squash and sauce)
  3. bell pepper - 1 medium (used in the sauce, quantity estimated)
  4. onion - 1 medium (sautéed until translucent)
  5. tofu - half block (soft tofu, half block used in sauce)
  6. chicken stock - about 1 cup (used as liquid base for sauce)
  7. ground turkey - about 1/2 pound (cooked without seasoning, mixed with sauce)
  8. fresh parsley - a small handful (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Spaghetti Squash: Cut the spaghetti squash lengthwise along the fibers to get longer strands. Remove the seeds and season the inside with salt.
  2. Roast the Squash: Place the squash cut side up and roast in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 25 to 30 minutes until tender.
  3. Make the Bell Pepper Sauce: Sauté chopped onions in a pan until translucent, season lightly with salt. Add diced bell pepper and cook until softened.
  4. Add Tofu and Liquid: Add half a block of soft tofu to the pan. Pour in chicken stock to create a sauce consistency. Adjust seasoning with salt.
  5. Cook Ground Turkey: Cook ground turkey without seasoning until done. Mix the cooked turkey into the bell pepper and tofu sauce.
  6. Assemble the Dish: Once the spaghetti squash is roasted and tender, scrape out the strands with a fork. Serve topped with the turkey and bell pepper tofu sauce. Garnish with fresh parsley.
