About Spaghetti squash with tomato sauce

Spaghetti squash with tomato sauce is a wholesome dish that combines tender strands of roasted spaghetti squash with a flavorful tomato-based sauce. This low-carb alternative to traditional pasta originates from Western cuisines that emphasize healthy, plant-based options. Spaghetti squash serves as the nutrient-rich base, packed with vitamins A, C, and B6, magnesium, and fiber, while the tomato sauce adds antioxidants like lycopene and potassium. Often enhanced with garlic, basil, and olive oil, the dish provides heart-healthy fats and a satisfying depth of flavor. For added protein, it can include ingredients like ground turkey, lentils, or grated cheese. With minimal saturated fats and plenty of veggies, it's a delightful way to enjoy a comforting yet nutritious meal. However, be mindful of portion sizes or added sugars in store-bought tomato sauces for a truly health-conscious choice.
