I just made this for my husband and I and when I put that first bite in my mouth, I thought I was eating the real thing. It was SO delicious and I am so excited at the discovery of spaghetti squash lol. A note, I did use coconut oil instead of ghee bc I couldn’t find any and it was delicious. Would’ve preferred the ghee but coconut oil works in a pinch.
Awesome, so glad you enjoyed!!
Wow. This looks wonderful. We’re on a low carb high fat diet which I think of as flammable paleo. I’ve tweaked this to get the ratios in line with what we need to keep burning fat (instead of carbs) and carry off the toxins we’re working hard to get rid of. Can hardly wait to try it out. Scampi has always been one of my favorites, and now it looks like I can have it again! Yum!
