Taco Spaghetti Squash Boats

Pretty good recipe. I was also confused about the four servings. So now I have the innards to have in bowl to eat by itself, I suppose. A couple of more spices would benefit this dish. But still pretty good.

This was quite good, will probably make it again because it’s a different way to make spaghetti squash. I added black beans, corn, omitted the ground turkey, spiced it up more, and added some minced canned chipotle in adobo for smoky heat. I didn’t refill the squash shells, but put the filling into a casserole dish; reheated in the microwave instead of baking. After scooping onto a plate, I drizzled with thinned sour cream, added the avocado, some fresh chopped tomatoes, cilantro, and crushed blue corn chips. I used a 3-1/2 pound spaghetti squash. This made enough for 4 good-sized servings plus 2 lunch servings, and the leftovers were great!

I was excited to see a Mexican recipe using spaghetti squash. I loved this meal but changed a little. I used ground beef and added a can of corn and can of beans and a can of Mexican festival Rotel. I also added more spices (Jane's crazy salt, chili powder, cumin and oregano). I did not bake it, but I toped the meat mixture with lettuce, tomato, & salsa. I had chips and guacamole on the side.

I have to agree with Erin, it lacked flavor. It would've been better had I skipped the squash altogether. I really like spaghetti squash, but this was just plain weird.

YUM! Next time I will add some cilantro though...

Lacked flavor. Was also disappointed that EatingWell included this in a low-cal meal plan - splitting a spaghetti squash in half implies 2 servings, but we read afterward that it's actually 4 servings, so we had overaten. What the heck are you supposed to do - cut the squash in fourths?? Leave half in the squash for tomorrow? Makes no sense.

We skipped the oven, and arranged the taco filling in a bowl. Resembles texas chile (without beans). Good. Will cook again.

Made this last night and we loved it! So simple and satisfying! I recommend fresh jalapeno peppers (diced) added to the pan with the squash to add some extra flavor!
