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!

Time 1h15m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

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.

Time 55m

Yield 1 squash, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 medium spaghetti squash
1/2 cup yellow onion, finely chopped
1 (10 ounce) can fat free condensed cream of celery soup
1 cup fat-free cheddar cheese, shredded divided into 1/4 cup and 3/4 cup
8 ounces nonfat sour cream
1/4 cup margarine, melted (real butter works best)
1 -2 teaspoon garlic powder
salt & pepper

Steps:

  • Wash the spaghetti squash. Pierce the rind 4-5 times with a sharp knife. Place in oven-proof pan. Bake in preheated 375 degree oven until soft, 1 - 1 1/2 hours. Remove from oven and reduce heat to 350 degrees. (Alternatively, place pierced squash on paper-towel lined plate and microwave 10-12 minutes.).
  • When the squash is cool enough to handle, slice lengthwise. Scoop out seeds and discard. Fork the squash into strands and place in buttered casserole dish.
  • While squash is baking, mix together soup, sour cream, chopped onion, garlic, and 1/4 cup of cheese.
  • When strands of squash have been placed into casserole dish, toss with melted butter and sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste (I use almost no salt as the cheese tends to be salty enough).
  • Pour soup mixture over squash and stir well. Top with remaining cheese.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes or until cheese is browned.

MODERN JEWISH LOW FAT KUGEL



Modern Jewish Low Fat Kugel image

This noodle kugel is a sweet casserole that feels like comfort food (especially if you are of Jewish heritage) yet is low fat and lower sugar than the average sweet kugel. I use the low-fat dairy and egg substitute to give it a richer flavor, but it tastes great made with nonfat ingredients as well. Enjoy! I developed it in honor of my beloved Grandma Sylvia.

Tips:

  • Choose the right spaghetti squash: Look for medium-sized spaghetti squash with a deep yellow color. This indicates that it is ripe and will have the best flavor.
  • Cook the spaghetti squash properly: To ensure that the spaghetti squash is cooked evenly, poke it with a fork in several places before baking. This will allow the steam to escape and prevent the squash from bursting.
  • Use a sharp knife to shred the spaghetti squash: This will help to create long, thin strands that resemble spaghetti.
  • Don't overcook the spaghetti squash: The squash should be tender but still have a slight bite to it. Overcooking will make it mushy.
  • Add your favorite seasonings: Feel free to experiment with different seasonings to create a dish that suits your taste. Some popular options include garlic, onion, salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.

Conclusion:

Mock noodle kugel using spaghetti squash is a delicious and healthy alternative to traditional kugel. It is low in carbs and fat, and it is packed with nutrients. This dish is perfect for anyone who is looking for a healthier way to enjoy kugel. It is also a great option for people who are following a low-carb or gluten-free diet.
