i made it with sauce i defrosted, and some parmesan...
i will NEVER eat fattening pasta again

they have it in the regular produce section, it looks like a cream colored eggplant...
you cut it in half, clean out the seeds in the middle, drizzle olive oil, kosher salt ground pepper, chopped garlic, (i put red pepper flakes, cause this baby is all of a sudden SPICY) and italian seasonings, i cooked it on 375 for 40 minutes, and scraped it down the middle with a fork (once you do it, youll see what i mean about it becoming spahetti-ish shaped)
i put sauce i had already made, and parmesan cheese,
it was DELISH,.
although, mint oreo cream ice cream does sound better lol thanks alot!

I love it! I used to it all the time when I was on the southbeach diet. I really didn't miss pasta at all. DH liked it too! It looks like angel hair pasta. External Image External Image External Image External Image External Image External Image

It looks yummy...but does it taste like real pasta???

Since I have GD this would be a good alternative to real pasta

Re: omg i just ate the best prego dinner EVER

im tellin you, ive been a dieter my WHOLE life...if i woulda known this was so good, i wouldve been skinny for years lolllllll
if it didnt take alil longer then pasta, id eat it EVERYTIME instead of it..

Im gonna make a bunch, and freeze it in portions i decided last nite, im still obsessed over it lol
it tastes BETTER then pasta i thought...
i am a vegetarian though, so i DO love veggies, BUT..it tastes like angel hair only a tiny bit sweeter..it was VERY refreshing..

I love it too - I saute it with cut up zucchini, garlic and the canned diced tomatoes with the garlic and spices already added.

Sooooo easy and so yummy!
