Ingredients

    2 cups cooked Spaghetti Squash, 3/4 cup cooked broccoli(chopped), 2 T evaporated milk plus 2 T nonfat milk (1/4 cup of milk total), 1/2 oz of Parmesan Cheese.

    If you want more protein, add leftover cooked chicken, fish, shrimp, whatever you have. Use whatever green vegetable you like. You'll have a pretty large plate of food.

Directions

This recipe is for one serving. I had the vegetables already cooked to use over several meals.
I blanched the broccoli so it was still crunchy. To cook the spaghetti squash I poked holes in the whole squash, then put it in a pan in a 375 degree oven for about 1 hour. It's done when you can push a fork into it, but don't overcook it.

Or you can put a whole (poke holes) squash and 2 cups water in the crockpot, for 6-8 hrs, but take it out when done so that it will stop cooking. Split it have to let it cool.

Remove the seeds, then use a fork to take out the strands that look like spaghetti. Store in the fridge and use them over several days.
For this recipe: 2 cups squash, 3/4 cup chopped broccoli, 1/4 cup milk, 1/2 oz Parmesan Cheese and heat in pot on stovetop while stirring. When hot, add black pepper.
I toast whole wheat bread to crunchy and put that on the plate first. Put the squash mixture on the toast and you are ready to enjoy!
If you like a spicy flavor, add hot sauce or red pepper flakes.
