Spaghetti Squash 'Burrito' Bowl

  Good afternoon Steemit, I am officially done breast feeding and am ready to get rid of the last few pounds that are still hanging on from my pregnancy so I have been trying out different ways to cut calories from my diet without loosing flavor. Spaghetti squash is a great substitute for pasta or in this case rice. Spaghetti squash has about 40 calories per cup while rice has upwards of 200. It also has fiber, potassium and vitamins A and C.  

For chicken:

• 1lb chicken breast
• 1 tsp ancho chili
• 1 tbs olive oil
• 1 lime (juice and zest)
• 1 tsp minced garlic

For squash:

• 1 spaghetti squash (cut in half length wise and seeds removed)
• 1 tsp olive oil
• salt and pepper to taste

Preheat oven to 425F.  In a baking dish, sprinkle chicken with ancho chili.  Mix together oil, lime zest and juice and garlic.  Pour mixture over chicken.  Drizzle olive oil over squash and season with salt and pepper.  Place cut side down on baking sheet.  Bake a together for 30 min.  Shred squash with a fork and put in the bottom of bowls.  Shred chicken with forks and put on top of squash.  I added cheese, salsa and guacamole to ours but you can top with anything you like.  Enjoy!
