Pesto Spaghetti Squash Recipe

I decided to go super simple this week and show you all one of my favorite go-to dinner recipes, spaghetti squash. This is so easy, tastes super satisfying and is great for the whole fam! It’s definitely one of my recipes to whip up in a pinch - it’s all gluten-free, dairy-free and vegan.

You won’t even miss the carbs and spaghetti squash has WAY more nutritional value, plus it has a healthy dose of vitamin A and vitamin C. I love tossing the baked squash with a homemade Green Dream pesto made from walnuts, parsley and garlic that has the power to boost your immune system and reduce blood pressure.

Get in on this!!

Gather This:

FOR THE “PASTA” -

1 spaghetti squash

1 tbsp EVOO

S + P

FOR THE PESTO:

1 bunch of organic parsley

½ C walnuts

3 cloves garlic

Juice of 1 lemon

1 tbsp of nutritional yeast

S + P

¾ C EVOO

1 tbsp Green Bee Honey

1 tbsp Green Dream Superfood + Protein Blend

Optional Toppings: Sprinkle of Green Dream Savory Blend and hemp seeds

Do This:

Preheat oven to 350°. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Cut the spaghetti squash in half lengthwise (carefully!) then scrape out the seeds and fiber.

Place each half on the baking sheet and pour 1 tbsp EVOO into each half. Spread oil all over the cut side of the squash and sprinkle with salt + pepper. Turn the squash cut side down and bake for 30-35 minutes until tender.

While the squash bakes, combine all pesto ingredients into a blender or food processor and blend until smooth.

Remove the squash from the oven, and let it cool enough to scrape with a fork. It will quickly + effortlessly turn into “spaghetti” on your plate.

Add the sauce, mix and top with Green Dream Savory Blend and hemp seeds. ENJOY!
