Nutrition & Calorie Comments  

Squash has more texture, more vitamins - it's a FAR better choice than pasta. GREAT recipe!!
There is a turkey pepperoni folks that is yummy & much leaner, however, I love my spag.squash with salt & pepper & a spray of I Can't Believe It's Butter. So tasty that way!
I made this without the pepperoni to cut the fat and use my own marinara sauce. That cuts down on the fat and sodium. (Jarred sauces have too much salt AND sugar) We also cut the parmesan in half and were very happy. We had grilled chicken breast on the side for our meal.
Everybody in the house liked this dish. I mixed a whole jar of Prego Heart Smart sauce and the pepperoni and heated it in a saucepan and then poured over the squash and mixed. If you count the parm separately the dish comes in at only 3.6 grams of fat and 183.7 calories when prepared this way.
The recipe would be good, except for the amount of SODIUM... if one is trying to lose weight, the amount of salt is as important, as the sugar and fat content, Sparkpeople, should be creating recipe's with much less salt....
love spag. squash. I bake it for 40-50 min. then take it out, turn it upright and fill the bowl part up with an apple or pear sprinkled with cinnamon and ff maple syrup or brown sugar, OMG, soooo good. oh ya, put it back in the oven for another 15-20 minutes, then its ready and sooooo good.
leave off the pepperoni and added a leaner source of protein
for those who think the pepperoni is bad, there's a turkey pepperoni on the market that is lower in fat and calories than regular pepperoni and is very tasty.
I LOVE spag squash!!! We roast ours whole then cut in half. Very easy and wonderfully tasty. If you use marinara sauce, ground lean meat and veggies, you can have a plate full of comfort with few calories.
The high sodium is maybe due to the pepperoni and parmesan. I make a similar dish with ground turkey and low salt/fat mozzarella and plenty of spices. I am lucky that salt doesn't seem to be a health issue for me, but I do try to keep it to a minimum. Microwaving the squash tons
I tried spaghetti squash with melted lowfat cheese! Even after draining the squash well, the cheese sauce was a bit 'runny'...but it satisfied my craving for 'mac & cheese'
Sounds good but not liking the sodium.
I would make this MINUS the Pepperoni....gives you TOO much sodium.
