All the creamy, cheesy, bacon goodness you love about Pasta Carbonara, but lightened up! Swapping out traditional spaghetti for spaghetti squash saves about 190 calories per one cup serving. An easy, hearty, low-carb, gluten-free, grain-free, healthy meal. (whoosh…that’s a lot of goodness!) True carbonara, the kind you get in Italy, doesn’t actually use any cream.
