Equipment

Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 - 3 pound spaghetti squash
  • salt & pepper
  • 2 pounds lean ground beef 90/10
  • 1/4 onion diced (70g)
  • 1 red bell pepper diced
  • 1 green bell pepper diced
  • 4 oz. mushrooms diced
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 cup liquid egg whites
  • 3 ounces mozzarella cheese shredded

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Slice your squash in half length wise. Season with salt and pepper. Lay face down on a cookie sheet and bake for 30 minutes.
  • Over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef, seasoned with salt and pepper, until no longer pink. Strain out any excess grease.
  • Add the onions, bell peppers, and mushrooms. Cook 3-5 minutes until veggies are tender. Stir in the Worcestershire sauce.
  • Arrange 5 meal prep containers on a cookie sheet. When the spaghetti squash is done you should be able to scrape the squash out with a fork. Evenly divide it amongst the 5 containers.
  • Divide the meat mixture up into the 5 bowls (about 1 cup per bowl) and stir well. Evenly pour the egg whites over the 5 bowls and gently stir in. Mix in, or top the bowls with the mozzarella cheese.
  • Bake for 40 minutes, or until the center is cooked through and the top is crispy.
  • Let cool before covering with lids and placing in the refrigerator. Reheat in the microwave for 2-3 minutes.
