Greek Style Spaghetti Squash and Cauliflower Mashed Potatoes

  Spaghetti Squash: Serves 3-4

• 1 Tbsp. coconut oil
• 3 c. cooked spaghetti squash*
• 1/2 c. cherry tomatoes
• 2 c. roughly chopped spinach
• a clove or two of garlic (more if you love it as much as I do.. just make sure you don't have a hot date the next day!!)
• 1/4 c. feta cheese
• salt 
• pepper
• cayenne pepper (if you like a little spice)

1. Heat coconut oil, garlic, and cherry tomatoes a large skillet over medium-high heat until tomatoes begin to burst. You may have to keep moving them around occasionally to keep them from burning; you may also help them to burst by using a wooden spoon to press against them (especially if you're hungry and impatient like I usually am). 
2. Add the spinach until its a little wilty. Not fully wilted, cause it will continue to cook/wilt as you go
3. Add the spaghetti squash. You can honestly add as much or as little as you want - it's like 42 calories per cup, so dive in!
4. Stir everything together and make sure spaghetti squash is completely heated through. 
5. Add feta and mix thoroughly. 
6. Add salt and pepper to taste & serve!

*To cook spaghetti squash: preheat oven to 350. Cut squash together lengthwise. Take out the seeds now - it's much easier than after they cook. Place the squash cut-side down in a baking dish; put in the oven for about 60 minutes. After cooling for about 10 minutes, use a fork to get the meat out of the squash. (I usually do this in advance - I'll get a 4 lb squash, that way I have it on hand for the week!)

Cauliflower Mashed Potatoes: 

• large head of cauliflower
• 2 Tbsp butter
• 2 Tbsp cream cheese

1. Cut cauliflower into large chunks and put into boiling pot of water for approximately 10 minutes - until tender. 
2. Strain and immediately place into food processor.
3. Add butter and cream cheese and process until smooth and creamy - you may have to help it along by mixing it every now and then. 
4. Add salt and pepper to taste - I garnish my servings with 1 Tbsp plain non-fat chobani. It's very similar to sour cream, but so much healthier for you.

You can get creative with it and add different spices like chives and garlic to make it even more tasty!
