This is one of my favourite healthy meals lately. It is basically just veggies and marinara sauce but so satisfying! The roasted veggies are so delicious and I am trying to do less fried veggies these days.
I found a pretty good marinara sauce at Costco. It had olive oil in it but otherwise seems tasty.
What you will need:
2 cups – brussel sprouts
4 medium sized – carrots
1 onion (I used half of a huge costco onion)
2 heads of garlic
s & P
3 tablespoons – balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon – olive oil
1 tablespoon – tamari
1 spaghetti squash
3 cups – marinara sauce
Preheat oven to 400F. Cut spaghetti squash in half, length wise place on a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set timer for 60 minutes.
Chop the carrots, onion, and brussel sprouts and place in a baking pan (I used 9 X13). I stuck the heads of garlic at either end of the baking pan. Add the balsamic, tamari, s&P, and olive oil to the vegetables and toss.
Place vegetables in the oven with the spaghetti squash and roast for 35-45 minutes. Until they are well roasted.
When the spaghetti squash is done remove the seeds and with a fork gently start to scrape out the squash, it will come out in strings.
Add some spaghetti squash to a plate top with some roasted veggies and about half a cup of marinara or more depending on what you like. And thats it! Feel free to change up the veggies too, try broccoli, cauliflower, zucchini or asparagus. 🙂 Enjoy!
