Going gluten-free has been a challenge for this pasta-loving girl. I have discovered spaghetti squash!! Although it takes a little more prep work and does cost more than a box of noodles, I actually love the spaghetti squash so much more than noodles. They have texture and flavor and pair so well with a meaty sauce. Tip: You can bake the squash in a slow cooker for 4 hours. Super easy!
