Spaghetti Squash Slaw
Spaghetti Squash Slaw
One large spaghetti squash, split in half with the seeds scooped out. Lay the cut side down in a glass pie plate and add 3 tablespoons of water. Cover with plastic wrap and microwave for 10 minutes or until the shell is soft to the touch.
Place the cooked squash on a counter until it is completely cooled. Scoop out the squash into a bowl. It will come out like strands of spaghetti. Add lots of very finely chopped onion, green pepper and red tomatoes or any other of your favorite vegetables such as green or black olives or beans. Put the squash strands in a large bowl.
Add about 1/2 cup of fat free and/or sugar free Italian dressing. The slaw should be well saturated without forming a puddle in the bottom of the bowl. Mix well and let sit overnight for the best taste. Keeps a long time in the refrigerator.
