Love that you are listing nutrition information.

[@noreply65]

I have a huge problem, so I need to replace one of the ingredients. I am allergic to limes, lemons, oranges, grapefruits, tangerines since almost 12 years ago. I am still in different treatments, because it's not only that, also seafood, and peanuts. I miss them. I got bitten by a poison spider. How can I replace the lime, etc. Seafood, no problem, I can use other meats. I love your recipes, so can you help me with your ideas and experiences, please? Thank you, you are the best.

[@robertm4050]

Over an hour to cook spaghetti squash in the oven is too much. That is going to be near mush. I like to do more in the 40-50 minute range and have much more texture left in it. If you place the cut side down it will steam itself and cook quicker, but will not release as much water which will make the flavor more intense. Stuff looks great I must say. I gotta stop watching and start making this stuff for the week.

[@robertm4050]

@@noreply65 I would suggest that you look at vinegars to replace your citrus allergy. It is acidity that they bring in most dishes. You can find all types of different flavored vinegar to add different flavors. It is not a perfect match, but will help out tons. You can use sesame seeds to replace peanuts or if you are only allergic to peanuts then try replacing with macadamia nuts, cashews, almonds, or hazelnuts. All those make great nut butter or garnishes. Further more you can help your citrus issue by using herbs to add complex or similar flavors. Lemon grass is fragrant with a slight citrus aroma and I grow it in my house... Coriander seed(cilantro seed) has a citrus flavor and is delicious in rice dishes. There is lemon balm and lemon basil that have a citrus aspect to them too. Grow them in a pot during the summer and dry for the rest of the year. Fresh oregano is one of the most amazing things and doesn't compare to dry stuff. Middle Eastern spice shops have anything you can want, I suggest Sumac or Za'atar. Personally I think Cumin can make anything better and cinnamon in savory dishes is my new love. Remember that herbs and vinegar will not add to your calorie or macros on a dish, but swaps for peanuts may not be an exact match nutritionally.

This is gold. Thank you so much. I watch keto recipes all the time but rarely have been motivated or excited enough to comment. I really needed something delicious but also somehow different to spice up my keto meals. This is perfect for autumn. I’m on week 3 and had run out of inspiration till I saw this because you end up eating a lot of the same stuff at the beginning - in my case it was a heavy omelette and chicken rotation with random veggies. And I love that the ingredients are all natural and aren’t crazy special , all stuff I can easily find here in Istanbul (talk about the internet bringing people closer) . Thanks!!

Yes they do make it more exciting I definitely cannot wait to try these and you’re not lying about the The Covid Weight gain it ain’t no joke damn I had lost all kinds of weight and then Cove it happened and all I could do is sit inside and eat I mean I could’ve worked out but I’m not motivated to work out at my house when I’m at home I’m motivated to sit on the couch and and binge watch Lovecraft and the closest store to my house is a dollar store they don’t have nothing healthy there and I wasn’t about ready to go all the way to town just to go to the groceries to get a bunch of healthy stuff if I didn’t really need to the dollar store is right up the road this Covid crap sucks and now they’re talking about another wave is coming you best believe I’m going to the store and I’m purchasing all of the healthy food items that I can purchase so I can make a crap ton Of meal preps and stick them in the freezer

[@ilax6662]

Splitting the squash by tapping it will help me. Thank you. I prefer meatless but all your seasonings and prep can still be enjoyed. Loved what I learned today. You are a true Chef.

[@spillthwinesfinds1244]

3 things. First, that tip of using the rolling pin to help cut the spaghetti squash is off the chain! What a perfect way to make the cutting easier! Second, until now I have only cooked the squash open side down on a sheet pan with water. Roasting it with olive oil makes it so much better! It brings out the flavor so much better! Third, I did a chicken thigh, mushroom , Alfredo with crushed red pepper on mine. So good!!

[@pennyprayer764]

The Spaghetti Squash Primavera was FANTASTIC !! My picky eater, male roommate was even a fan! 👍👍 two thumbs up !

[@RC2214]

If you want long full strands from the squash the trick is to cut it crosswise, it will give you longer strands when you scoop it out with the fork 🙂 Another tip too is if you are using foil it's best to use parchment first then because the lemon will cause the tin to leech into the food, also gives it a different taste.

[@myhappynest6125]

I just learned that if you cut some slits across the top and microwave the squash for 5 minutes it is very easy to cut in half. Just need to let it cool slightly first. . I will be making everyone of these recipes. Thanks Bobby.

[@aldenasuemia]

Vegan Keto here but I absolutely love your pesto spag squash & chicken recipe, could fully adapt it and it was smashing!!!

[@jpeachy4u482]

I do a "half n half" method to cook it if I'm pressed for time. Some time in the micro, some time in the oven. About 7min in the micro and a half hour in the oven. I can't do all micro the texture is lousy. When I do all oven I actually do it cut side down so it steams a little and it cooks faster. Then for the last 20 minutes cut side up to dry it out a bit. I do this for butternut squash too. Great video as always, can't wait to try the recipes, especially the shrimp one. I never met a shrimp I didn't like😀

[@BobbyParrish]

i will try it cut side down, thanks!

I like the second recipes, especially for today since it's warm out, I already prepped my squash earlier so now I don't have to use more heat or time. 🙂

This is all the recipe i need for spaghetti squash!

[@bentleygamertv1624]

Im so trying the last recipe this week ! Thanks FlavCity for never letting me down on healthy delicious recipe ideas !

[@GreenLanternCorps2814]

If I may pitch in about the spaghetti squash... There's a lot of spaghetti squash in there. Use olive oil liberally (you didn't really drizzle, more of a pour, but I'd suggest even more). Same with the salt and pepper. When done, throw in plenty of parmesan.

[@TheBudmoore420]

I always bake mine with red pepper flakes to get rid of the sweet taste of squash. We fill a glass dish with cooked spaghetti squash then cover it with sauce, cheese, pepperoni, green peppers, onions. Bake for 20 mins on 400. Pizza squash. Or cover with fried chicken strips from cheap store and cover with sauce and mozzarella, chicken parm.

[@BobbyParrish]

great idea!

[@hazel5520]

Spaghetti squash to me is not sweet butter squash is the sweet one and I don't like butter squash it is too sweet

[@kerylcooper2314]

Thank you Bobbie I have had the RNY surgery last December I have lost about 100 pounds but still can not get blood sugar under control I asked my Dr if I could do it and she said stay away from the bad fats and she had no problem with. I need help and I have found you but I have to learn what bad fats are. Oh by the I am on welfare and don't have much money for food. Hopefully I can get all I need on the on line company you recommended. Pray for me thank you! I want to feel good even if I am 74.

[@BobbyParrish]

wow...i hope you feel better!!! bad fats are canola oil..veggie oil..corn oil..and any man mad fats used in processed foods...stick to olive, grapeseed, avocado, coconut oils

[@rustydip1]

My one doctor told me for my heart to only use Canola Oil & some Olive Oil.

I used to eat it a lot when I had a big garden & grew my own food all summer. But back then, in the 70s & half of the 80s, everyone only made it with butter, which was delicious but boring compared to what Bobby is doing with it.

[@emh8861]

[@mattlopstain9684]

[@Jaxon_Wii]

Hi F, Delicious recipe. I simply use spaghetti sauce on top of my spaghetti squash. I boil my spaghetti squash halves to loosen up the strands. And I mix the spaghetti sauce into the squash with a pinch of salt/pepper/garlic powder then topped with shredded cheese, then, tomatoes; then bake 350 in oven 45 minutes. Mmm good.

[@BobbyParrish]

sounds good to me!

[@pinklight911]

Which spaghetti squash do you use?

[@Blessedbyvypercc]

I do the same thing! I’ve even used a little Alfredo on it before.

[@Jaxon_Wii]

Sounds delicious!

[@moonlitbalcony2861]

Yeah that's sounds great! I usually roast mine whole for about 40-45 minutes remove seeds and pull strands apart then top it with a simple chili and grated parmesan It's so hearty and filling.

[@EXLN]

Love your videos! If you cut spaghetti squash across the width/down the middle, or the short way, the strands will be longer resembling spaghetti.

[@alexajohnson944]

Bobby thanks so much for your videos , you have been a staple in my keto adaptation. And I just adjust your regular recipes to fit my lifestyle as well

[@2005wsoxfan]

I pressure cook my SS. 7-10 minutes depends on the size. No poking holes in it and the seeds seperate from the stringy stuff amazingly easy. So, I end up roasting the seeds as well. Also, the squash completely separates from the shell so you end up using all the squash leaving only the skin behind.

[@BobbyParrish]

i will have to try that !

[@pinklight911]
