Skinny Spaghetti
This isn't really a recipe, but if you've never tried spaghetti squash, you should! Especially awesome if you're trying to lose weight, but want to eat some pasta (or if you're feeding someone that can't have wheat!). Cut the Squash in half length wise (really hard to do, find a sharp knife and try not to lose a finger), scoop out the seeds and gross stuff, then place on a pan cut side down with a little bit of water and bake for 30-45 min at 350. Once you can easily stick a knife in it, take it out and just scrape out the "spaghetti" strands. If you don't cook it long enough, it will be a little crunchy, but even when it's totally done, it's still not going to be as soft as spaghetti noodles. Still really good, and Claire doesn't even know the difference. I tried baking it whole, but then the stuff you are supposed to spoon out gets all mushy and mixed in with the good stuff and it just makes it really hard to deal with. One it's done baking, just use like you would any noodles.
