Although it may seem like I eat meatballs at every meal, I occasionally opt for different meats of the non-ball variety. (Like when I’ve run out of meatballs and don’t have the necessary ingredients to make more.) Tonight was one of those nights. With a grumbling belly and nary a meatball in sight, I decided to remix my usual spaghetti squash with some ingredients I had on hand.
Enter Spaghetti Squash with Sausage, Pesto, and Tomatoes:
For this throw-together-in-five-minutes-dinner, I heated up 2 cups of leftover spaghetti squash in the microwave. Then tossed 2 tbsp of leftover pesto (see recipe below), one leftover chopped up chicken sausage (pre cooked), and one sliced tomato into a small saute pan,
Once everything was nice and hot, I dumped the goods on the squash and nuked some leftover Oven Asparagus for my side.
I love how colorful, simple, and tasty this was!

Add all ingredients to a food processor and pulse, scraping down sides of bowl as needed, until thoroughly combined.
With dinner out of the way, I’ve spent the last hour and a half brainstorming foods to make for Super Bowl Sunday. I need help!! Any suggestions?
