TLDR: What you need to know

Unbelievably healthy and delicious meal- spaghetti squash taco bowl

  • 10/10 taste
  • high volume ie you get to eat a lot - the squash 129 calories for a whole pound
  • will make you super full
  • perfect macros after adding guacamole, salsa, and meat
  • under 400 calories 130 squash, 50 avocados, 200 carnitas, can ignore tomatoes and lettuce cals

Ray's workflow

1 - Buy spaghetti squash from Trader Joe's.
(Trader's charges per spaghetti squash, vs other places often charge per lb. I get the biggest squashes from Traders)

2 - Preheat oven to 400 degrees or 425 degrees convection

3 - Slice the spaghetti squash in half

4 - Put it in the oven on a sheet pan with foil, face down

5 - Let it cook for about 20-30 min.

6 - Take it out of the oven and scoop out the seeds
