Spaghetti with meat sauce is one of my favorite foods. It is one of the few dishes that taste better as leftovers than when first prepared. As I have gotten older, I find myself giving as much weight to how a food makes me feel as to how it tastes. This led me to seek an alternative to traditional pasta because pasta makes me feel tired and lethargic.
Spaghetti squash is a type of winter squash that gets its name from its stringy, spaghetti-like texture when cooked. Although it does not taste exactly like pasta, I have found it to be an excellent alternative.
