Recipe - chicken spaghetti with spaghetti squash

Alright, I got another Advocare-friendly and Paleo and clean-eating recipe for ya! This is guaranteed to knock your socks off. I say that because Josh actually ate this, and enjoyed it. So I know you will too!



Ingredients
2-3 chicken breasts
1/2 white onion, diced
3-4 garlic cloves, diced
1 medium-large spaghetti squash
28oz tomato sauce (I use this purée and love it)
Italian seasoning

Directions
1) you want to start with your chicken. Clean it up, boil it for 30-45 minutes and shred it. Set aside. 
2) toss onion and garlic in a large sauce pot with a tablespoon or so of EVOO. Cook until onions are clear and garlic flowers. 
3) while your onion/garlic is cooking, cook your spaghetti squash. Cut it in half length-wise and gut it. Place face down in microwave safe dish with an inch or so of water. Microwave for 8-9 minutes. 
4) once onion/garlic is ready, add the tomato sauce/purée, shredded chicken and a sprinkle of Italian seasoning (I didn't measure this, so I'll guess a teaspoon or 2)
5) once your squash is done, start carving it. Use a fork and scrape the inside. It should just peel right out, and resemble spaghetti noddles. Place the "noodles" in the pot and stir it all around. 
6) bring to a boil and let simmer for 25 minutes. 

That's it! This recipe should feed 4. Enjoy, y'all!!
