Crockpot Spaghetti Squash in Tomato Sauce with Meatballs

  If you've never tried spaghetti squash I would highly recommend it! It taste great, and is an excellent substitute for regular pasta especially if you're gluten-intolerent or just trying to cut down on some carbs or calories. 

This recipe is just super easy. I choose to make my own meatballs, but in theory you could just go ahead and use some from frost. 

Ingredients for Meatballs
1 lb Ground Turkey
1 Egg
1 Cup Fine Bread Crumbs
1/2 Cup Fresh Italian Parsley Chopped
1/2 Onion Minced
2 Cloves Garlic Minced
1/2 tsp Red Pepper Flakes
Salt and Pepper to taste

Directions:
Mix all ingredients together and bake in oven for 20 minutes at 350 degrees. 

Spaghetti Squash in Tomato Sauce with Meatballs
1 medium to large spaghetti squash, washed
1 jar of spaghetti sauce, your preferred flavor (more if desired)
3 cups of frozen meatballs

Directions:

Cut the spaghetti squash in half around the middle. Use a spoon to remove the seeds and membranes. Place cut sides down in a large crock pot.
Pour the spaghetti sauce around the sides of the squash and then place your meat balls around the sides as well.
Cook on low for 5-6 hours, or high for 3-4 hours. Test for doneness by piercing the squash with a fork, if it goes through the skin easily, it is done.
Use tongs to carefully remove the squash from the crock pot. Use a fork to pull out all the squash, discard the shell.
Serve with the sauce and meatballs from the crock pot. Enjoy!
