Beets make a surprisingly delicious red sauce that pairs beautifully with spaghetti squash. Spaghetti squash is a winter squash that has long, tender, noodle-like flesh that makes a fun alternative to pasta. Winter squash are prized for their abundant B-vitamins, including B1, B3, B6, pantothenic acid and folate. Their carotenoid content provides antioxidant benefits. Winter squash contains moderate amounts of Omega 3 fats in the form of alpha-linolenic acid, which plays a role in supporting cognitive function. Prep 1 spaghetti squash 1 tablespoon coconut oil 1 medium shallot 4 cloves garlic 2 medium beets ½ cup cauliflower 2 carrots ½ cup fresh basil Preheat oven to 350°. Cut spaghetti squash lengthwise, scoop out seeds and spread coconut oil over cut sides. Place squash cut sides down in a baking dish and bake 45 minutes or until tender. Peel and chop shallot, garlic, beets and cauliflower. Chop carrots and basil. Sauce 1 tablespoon coconut oil 1 tablespoon fresh thyme 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary 1½ cup vegetable broth ½ cup coconut milk 1 teaspoon Himalayan salt Heat coconut oil in a large, heavy pot over medium heat. Add shallot and garlic and cook until shallot is translucent, stirring frequently. Add beets, carrots, thyme, and rosemary, and cook for a few more minutes. Add ½ cup broth, coconut milk and salt; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat; use an immersion blender or carefully transfer to a countertop blender and puree along with 1 cup broth. Return to pot, add basil and warm for a few more minutes. Serve When squash is done, scoop out flesh and fluff with a fork. Divide among plates and drizzle with sauce. Preparation: 1 hour Serves: 4
