Ingrédients
  

  • 1 medium spaghetti squash
  • 2 eggs eggs
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 4 strips strips bacon
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut the spaghetti squash in half and remove the seeds. Place it cut side down on a baking sheet and roast for about 35-40 minutes or until tender.
  • While the squash is roasting, cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Remove and crumble the bacon, then set aside.
  • In the same skillet, sauté the garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute. Remove from heat.
  • In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, Parmesan cheese, heavy cream, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
  • When the spaghetti squash is done, use a fork to scrape out the strands of squash into a bowl.
  • Add the hot spaghetti squash strands to the skillet with garlic, then quickly pour the egg mixture over, tossing to coat the squash evenly and creating a creamy sauce.
  • Add the crumbled bacon and sprinkle with fresh parsley. Serve immediately.
