About Spaguetti squash

Spaghetti squash, a member of the winter squash family, is a low-calorie, nutrient-dense vegetable native to North and Central America. When cooked, its flesh transforms into stringy, spaghetti-like strands, making it a popular gluten-free, low-carb alternative to pasta. Packed with vitamins and minerals, spaghetti squash is an excellent source of vitamin C, manganese, and B vitamins like B6 and folate. It's also rich in antioxidants and dietary fiber, promoting digestive health and supporting the immune system. With only about 40 calories per cup, it’s an ideal choice for weight management. Its mild, slightly sweet flavor pairs well with a variety of cuisines, especially Italian-inspired dishes. While naturally low in fat and sodium, toppings like cheese or creamy sauces can add calories, so moderation is key. Spaghetti squash offers a delicious, wholesome way to enjoy comfort food without sacrificing nutrition.
