Low Carb Spinach Chicken Stuffed Spaghetti Squash
January 31, 2018
This Low Carb Spinach Chicken Stuffed Spaghetti Squash is the perfect healthy meal for lunch or dinner. It’s easy to put together and is ideal for anyone following a low carb or keto lifestyle.
Spaghetti squash has become a favorite of mine in the past few weeks. It’s easy to prepare and there are always leftovers so that I can make multiple meals out of it. I’m still working on the kids and the texture of it (they are still thinking pasta), but I will win them over eventually.
Depending on your availability there are three different methods that I have used to cook my spaghetti squash.
- Microwave – Cut in half and remove all the seeds. Place cut side down in 1/2″ of water and put it in the microwave for 8 minutes. Allow to cool
- Instant Pot – Pierce the whole spaghetti squash about 10 times and place in the instant pot. Put it on high on the pressure cooking setting for 15 minutes.
- Oven – Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Cut the squash in half and remove all the seeds. Place cut side down in 1/2″ of water and bake in the oven for 45 minutes.
For this Spinach Chicken Stuffed Spaghetti Squash recipe, I used the oven method, but as I said before depending on your time, you can use any of the above methods.
Since I’ve been following the keto/low carb diet, I made sure that I loaded it with chicken, spinach, cheese, tomatoes, and mushrooms. Feel free to omit any of the above.

Did you know that pediatric dentists are not the same as regular dentists? This is because pediatric dentists are specialised pediatricians of dentistry who have two or three years additional training and they only treat children. A good pediatric dentist has the advantage of having more experience with children and infants, and specializes in oral care for children and their dental health needs.
