Y’all! I am loving this! In less than 30 minutes I had dinner made, and it’s KETO friendly!! Gosh darn, it took all of me not to eat all this when I made it too.
I don’t know about you but when it comes to cheese inside a meal, I can practically sell the kids on it no matter how it comes. Yeah, buddy! But, I’d NEVER tell them it’s healthy. NO, no, no! I am so tempted to tell them that I made dinner with the same company that makes Ramen. See…when they hear Ramen, they are in! Yet, I keep telling them if they keep eating Ramen now while they are young, they may not have anything they are willing to eat in College. The taste of Ramen only lasts a couple of years before you are over it. But, what do I know?
Let’s make spaghetti squash…
Ok, you’ll find this squash in the produce next to the potatoes at the grocery store. One squash runs you about $3-$5 and is packed with nutrients. It’s an easy vegetable to work with. There are so many things to do with it, i.e. spaghetti and meat sauce.

First, you will split it in half, throw some salt (and pepper if you please), and RUB some oil on the top. Roast for 25 minutes at 425 degrees on a baking sheet.
While waiting on the squash…
Cook the chicken in an oiled pan and then salt and pepper it. I like to cook it on high at first then turn to low heat so it’s slightly charred on the outside and moist in the middle.
Now get the cheese grated and the spinach coarsely chopped. Now, I LOVED adding a couple of teaspoons of pimentos into this squash. The flavor just went another level!!

Keep fluffing your ingredients together, and voila! Dinner is done, baby!!
