Spaghetti Squash Boats #Ragu

Ragú® Recipe Contest Entry. I was babysitting my sisters kids one night and wanted to come up with something fun and healthy to make. The whole family has worked really hard in the last year to change their way of eating and have lost quite a bit of weight. As much as we all love pasta it is too high in calories and carbs. We didn't even miss it in this dish! Spaghetti squash is my new favorite pasta substitute. And it was really fun serving the dish right out of the squash bowls!
