Loving the low-carb deliciousness of spaghetti squash? Make this spaghetti squash alfredo next! The sauce is made in a similar way as authentic carbonara with bacon, egg yolks, and parmesan so there is tons of flavor. All that is missing is the carbs from the noodles – the spaghetti squash gives a mild, slightly sweet flavor.
Spaghetti squash: A low-carb and nutritious alternative to traditional pasta with a mild, slightly sweet flavor. Bacon: Contributes smokiness and texture. Garlic: Adds a savory depth. Egg yolks: Forms the rich, velvety base of the carbonara sauce. Parmesan cheese: For a sharp and salty kick while contributing to the creamy consistency. Salt and pepper: Salt enhances the savory notes and pepper provides a subtle heat. Parsley: Sprinkle minced parsley for a hint of freshness that complements the creaminess of the dish.
Spaghetti squash carbonara makes a rich yet healthy side dish to proteins, like juicy grilled chicken breast, honey glazed salmon, or lemon rosemary chicken.
