Clean eating, gluten free, grain free, lactose and dairy free
Ingredients:
1 large spaghetti squash (mine came out to about 6 cups of spaghetti squash once it’s cooked)
1 1/2 lb beef, 93% lean
24 ounces no sodium added tomato sauce
16 ounces fresh mushroom pieces
2 medium tomatoes, diced
4 tablespoons diced onion
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 whole bay leaves
Italian spices (oregano, sage, parsley) to taste
Red pepper flakes to taste
Garlic powder to taste
Directions:
Cook beef in pan on stove with onion, garlic powder and spices. When it is cooked through, put in strainer lined with paper towels to soak up excess oil.
Add the rest of the ingredients into a slow cooker while the meat is cooking. When the beef is done, add it to the ingredients in the slow cooker and let cook on low for about 2 – 4 hours. The longer the more the spices will open up.
Cook spaghetti squash about an hour before dinner. “Fork” holes all over and bake in oven on 350 degrees for about 45 minutes. Cut in half to scoop out seeds.
Serve sauce over bed of spaghetti squash.
