Cabbage Spaghetti Surprisingly Good!

Well, unless you're my husband that is. But there's no way I'll ever get him to substitute crappy foods for healthy vegetable stuff!

Okay, honestly if you take a bite of cabbage spaghetti then take a bite of real spaghetti, you are probably going to notice the difference. But, let me tell you, cabbage spaghetti was GOOD! I made it with ground turkey, spaghetti sauce, spices and cabbage. Very very tasty and filling. It has got to be tons less calories.......

Thats funny that you posted about Cabbage Spagetti... I had lunch at a small cafe called Zoe's Kitchen and they had a protien plate that came with a grilled Chicken breast on what they called slaw, but it was cut and looked like spagetti... I can't quit talking about how delicious it was... Now I can't wait to cook it a little bit and serve it with spag. sauce!!! Yummy!!

In Canada we call this a version of Lazy Man's Cabbage Rolls.

Wow, that's funny! Because I said to my husband that it kind of tasted like my mom's recipe of stuffed peppers, which also included the hamburger mixture inside rolled cabbage!! I don't know if it was tomato or spaghetti sauce or what on top, but it was good, and so is this!!

Reading this is making me very hungry and I'm still on liquids for another eight days!

Oh my! All of this sounds delicious. Must try the cabbage since I absolutely love stuffed cabbage. The spaghetti squash was yummy and easy to make.

Also, for those of you who like pizza should make eggplant pizza. Bake slices of panko coated eggplant, top with marinara and mozerella and bake for additional five minutes. The outside of the eggplants is crunch and the inside is warm and goey.

Also, we baked the mashed cauliflower and used light cream cheese, parmesan, and garlic instead of milk. Baking it helped get rid of some of the moisture and made the top crunchy.

i never thought that zucchini, cauliflower and cabbage could sound so enticing. Been on liquids since 12/28. Will be on them until Jan 21st. Come that day I am going to whip out the blender and start purr]eeing me some of this good stuff! Thank.s

Just wanted to let everyone know, I made the spaghetti squash spaghetti for dinner tonight and it was AMAZING!!! I just baked the squash whole for a little over an hour in the oven, then scooped out the squash, tossed it in a skillet with my favorite veggie tomato sauce and then topped the dish with a little bit of skim mozzarella and fresh parmesan. Wow. So amazing! I still have half a squash leftover and I think I'll make spaghetti squash macaroni-less "mac and cheese" with it tomorrow.

Glad you liked it! Spaghetti squash is a staple in my diet now. I eat it with chicken and alfredo sauce when I'm not in the mood for spaghetti! I've even used it in stir-fry.

FYI. To cut down on the cooking time you can put it in Water upside down in the microwave for 4-5 mins or until the skin is soft to touch or when you can stick a fork through it.
