It's so versatile and can be used in a variety of really creative ways to create the most delicious healthy dishes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before I moved to Canada, I probably would not have even known what spaghetti squash is. But now with it available at pretty much every grocery store here, it's a regular item in my grocery cart.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Spaghetti Squash is pretty unique in that once cooked resembles strands of spaghetti, so is a perfect natural gluten free replacement for pasta or noodles and a great vegetable to add to your plate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"680\" height=\"1027\" data-pin-description=\"Mexican Spaghetti Squash Bake - both healthy and delicious with bold flavours, black beans and melted golden cheese. #glutenfree #vegetarian #spaghettisquash #slimmingworld #weightwatchers #bake #cheese #synfree #smartpoints\" src=\"https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/spaghetti-squash-4.jpg\" alt=\"white bowl of cooked spaghetti squash\" class=\"wp-image-18881\" title=\"Mexican Spaghetti Squash Bake - both healthy and delicious with bold flavours, black beans and melted golden cheese. #glutenfree #vegetarian #spaghettisquash #slimmingworld #weightwatchers #bake #cheese #synfree #smartpoints\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/spaghetti-squash-4.jpg 680w, https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/spaghetti-squash-4-199x300.jpg 199w, https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/spaghetti-squash-4-678x1024.jpg 678w, https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/spaghetti-squash-4-300x453.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/spaghetti-squash-4-560x846.jpg 560w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Perfect with spaghetti bolognese instead of pasta, add it to your chow mein instead of noodles, or do a half and half mix if you really can't live without the pasta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another favourite way to use cooked spaghetti squash is in a delicious cheesy bake like this Mexican Spaghetti Squash Bake. Seriously it's so darn flavoursome, I could eat it every week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1510\" data-pin-description=\"Mexican Spaghetti Squash Bake -
