Ingredients

  • 1 Spaghetti Squash
  • 2 tbsps Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 2 Garlic (cloves, minced)
  • 8 ozs Shrimp (uncooked, peeled)
  • 1 Lemon (juiced)
  • 1/4 tsp Sea Salt (or more to taste)
  • 2 tbsps Parsley (chopped, to garnish)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350ºF (177ºC) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Slice the spaghetti squash in half through its belly, and place cut-side down on the baking sheet. Bake for 30 minutes, remove from the oven and let cool slightly.
  • While the squash is cooling, heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and shrimp. Saute for 5-7 minutes, or until the shrimp is cooked through. Squeeze the lemon juice into the pan, and season with sea salt.
  • Scoop out the spaghetti squash into noodles and divide them between bowls. Top with the shrimp, drizzle with the sauce from the pan, a little extra olive oil, and a sprinkle of parsley. Enjoy!
