This recipe for sausage and veggies over spaghetti squash is a nice light meal. It won’t feel heavy on your stomach, but it will fill you up!
This meal will take you about 30 minutes from start to finish if you are cooking your sausage and veggies at the same time as the spaghetti squash. The most difficult part will be cutting your spaghetti squash in half. Be careful with that part.
