Tex mex Spaghetti Squash Magical Boats

 Now lemme tell you...it is not every day that you create something as magical and genius as this. This is, honestly, one of the most delicious, filling, nutritious and complete vegetarian dinners I have found. Seriously. If a vegetarian is coming over for dinner, this is what you should make. It's got it all. Beans and cheese for protein, a heaping serving of veggies, and a whole lotta great flavor. Here is the recipe and boy do they have some great photos as well.

• spaghetti squash
• onion
• garlic cloves
•  bell pepper
• red kidney beans
• chili powder
•  canned mild green chilis 
•  tomato sauce
• cilantro (I was missing this, oops)
• Tex Mex shredded cheese

It's that simple! Seriously, you just pop in the squash and while it is cooking you saute up your bell pepper, onion and garlic. Then you mix that with your beans, chilies,  tomato sauce and cilantro. Then just fill up the boats, top with cheese and stick them back in for a few minutes.


Aww yeah that's a nice view. Seriously, I can't even describe how good these are. You feel so full but you know you have put some serious nutrition into your body. 100% recomendable! Plus they will feed you for multiple meals! Bonus!

Update: I made this again on 2/19/16 and a suggestion:
I really love lots of sauce with spaghetti squash; it really transforms it. So for me, this didn't have enough sauce. So I dumped a bunch of salsa on top (like really a lot), and that really elevated this to a new level. Next time I think I will put a layer of tomato sauce (and more green chilis) on top of the bean mixture before putting on the cheese. I just love saucy spaghetti squash!
