MOCK NOODLE KUGEL (USING SPAGHETTI SQUASH; LOW-CARB, FAT-FREE)

Mock Noodle Kugel (Using Spaghetti Squash; Low-Carb, Fat-Free) image

I based this recipe on one I found in Nechama Cohen's "Enlitened Kosher Cooking." I chose the sweet variation, so that's what I'm posting; but if you want a savory kugel, leave out the Splenda, cinnamon and nutmeg and replace it with one peeled, sliced medium onion and two peeled, minced cloves of garlic sauteed in a tablespoon of olive oil. Don't be deterred by the cooking time -- most of it is spent waiting for the squash to cool, or the kugel to bake!

Ingredients

1 (2 lb) spaghetti squash
2 eggs
2 egg whites
salt and pepper, to taste
1/4 cup Splenda granular (sugar substitute)
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg

Steps:

Prepare the spaghetti squash: split it in half and remove the seeds and strings. Place the halves cut-side down in 1/4 c water, cover with plastic wrap, and microwave for seven to ten minutes or until the flesh is soft. Allow to cool.
Preheat oven to 400. Line an 8" square baking pan and spray with non-stick cooking spray.
Using a fork, scrape the flesh out of the squash halves. Place the "spaghetti" in a large bowl.
Lightly beat the eggs and egg whites; add them, along with the rest of the ingredients, to the bowl with the squash. Mix well with a wooden spoon.
Pour into the prepared pan and lighting spray the top with non-stick cooking spray. Bake for 10 minutes at 400, then lower the heat to 350 and bake for another 30 minutes, until the kugel starts to turn a bit golden.

Tips:

- Use a large bowl to mix the ingredients, as the mixture will expand as you add the eggs. - If you are using a food processor to grate the zucchini, be sure to squeeze out the excess moisture before adding it to the mixture. This will help to prevent the kugel from being too watery. - Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help to prevent the mixture from curdling. - If you are using a loaf pan, grease it well before adding the batter. This will help to prevent the kugel from sticking. - Bake the kugel until it is golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This will usually take about 45 minutes to 1 hour. - Let the kugel cool for at least 15 minutes before serving. This will help it to set and make it easier to slice.

Spaghetti kugel is a delicious and versatile dish that can be served as a main course or a side dish.
