Creamy Cheesy Spaghetti Squash


Today I really wanted something cheesy for lunch, but my options were limited as I haven't grocery shopped in a while. Found a small, forgotten spaghetti squash in the fridge, and a little bit of left-over Parmesan...

Creamy Cheesy Spaghetti Squash

2 cups cooked spaghetti squash (from a squash not too much larger than a grapefruit; to cook quickly, cut in half and microwave about 10 minutes face-down on a plate with a little water)
1/3 to 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
4 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
dash of nutmeg

In your lunch bowl, mix yogurt, cheese, and nutmeg. Add the 2 cups cooked squash, and mix thoroughly. Microwave about 20 seconds, until just heated--do not overheat or the yogurt may curdle. Eat as a main-course lunch, or alternately as a rich side dish at dinner.

Serves 1
