Spaghetti and Meatballs!

One of my most favorite meals in the world is spaghetti and meatballs, and we all known how hard it is to fit pasta into your daily points. So I tried something I saw on good ol' Pinterest and made it with Spaghetti squash! Here's a picture of the final product


Here's what I did to make this delicious, nutritious and super filling meal:
Step 1) Halve a spaghetti squash and place on baking sheet. Bake at 400 for 40 minutes.
Step 2) while the squash is cooling, broil one turkey patty for 10 minutes per side . Optional- season with Italian seasoning, garlic salt, oregano, onion powder and chili powder. While turkey is cooking, put 1/2 cup of Prego Heart Smart Marinara into a bowl and microwave til hot.
Step 3) Take a fork and scrape the desired amount of spaghetti squash into the bowl ( this gives it the spaghetti like appearance) you want to eat out of, scrape rest into a container for future use. Optional- cut up 1/4 a green bell pepper, 1 chive, and any other veggies you like and put to the side.
Step 4) When the turkey patty is cooked through pour the Prego over the squash and microwave for about a minute. While that is heating dice up the turkey patty.
Step 4) Toss turkey, and veggies on top of squash and marinara and lastly top with mozzarella cheese!

This is good for 6pts :)

Enjoy!
