I really wanted some pesto so I decided to throw it on my second favorite noodle substitute…spaghetti squash (second behind zucchini noodles). Pesto is typically made with nuts (which I am staying away from during the Whole30) and cheese (not Whole30 approved). I decided to leave out the nuts and throw in a little nutritional yeast, which has a similar flavor to parmesan cheese.
One of the tasks I hate the most is cutting a raw spaghetti squash. My favorite way to prepare it is to just throw it in a 400 F oven for about an hour, cut it open, scoop out the seeds, and shred with a fork. So easy! And my fingers stay intact…win,win!
What’s your favorite noodle replacement? I’d love to hear about it in the comments below. 🙂
