SPAGETTIE SQUASH & SAUCE

 Spaghetti  and pizza are 2 of my LOVES!!!!!  I can't go very many days before I NEED to have them.  I have discovered something part of my LOVE is in the sauce.  I LOVE spaghetti sauce or tomato sauce stuff in general.  These are 2 ways I can have my weight loss not sabotaged but still eat the flavors I LOVE!!!  
 Forgive the presentation Ashlynn a 4 year old was helping:)  Take your tortilla, spread with sauce, a serving of Canadian bacon, an ounce of mozzarella cheese, 
 Toast it
 Roll it up and you have a DELICIOUS 290 calorie pizza wrap GOTTA LOVE THAT:)
As an added bonus you only have 8 fat grams compared to normal pizza where you have like 23.  I did LOVE this and it did take care of my pizza craving, however I am totally addicted to ...
Spaghetti squash.    This overly HUGE delicious meal right here only 325 calories and that is because I am starving today and wanted 2 cups of squash.  That is right 2 cups.  Plus I choose not to have meat  the last few times i've eaten it because I am also a cheese addict.    I leave out the meat and add one and a half ounces of cheese which KILLS your calories.  This sauce is the lowest calorie one I have EVER found.  Only 40 calories in a half a cup.  That means when a cup of squash is only 42 calories and I had 2.  A half cup sauce is 40 and I had a whole cup. I also had a half cup mushrooms and one and a half ounces of cheese on this HUGE meal I can be stuffed and still have enough calories to eat dinner:)  If this was real spaghetti and normal ragu  I would be at 1,ooo with just sauce and noodles.  That is not even cheese and who wants to eat spaghetti without cheese?  MAKES  squash sound pretty darn appetizing to me:)  Plus squash has tons of vitamins in it.  I was surprised to see that this sauce has 3.3 grams of fiber per serving.  That means that meal also has 10 grams of fiber.  I Just might eat a smaller portion again for dinner it sounds so good:)
