Ingredients
  

  • 1 organic spaghetti squash
  • 1 lb organic chicken breast
  • ½ organic white or yellow onion
  • ½ cup organic broccoli slaw (I get mine from Trader Joe's, but you could also use cut up broccoli and matchstick carrots)
  • 1 tbsp avocado oil
  • 3 organic eggs
  • 2 tbsp garlic, minced
  • squeeze fresh lime
  • salt, pepper and green onions, to taste
  • cilantro and cashews, to garnish

Sauce

  • 3 tbsp coconut aminos
  • ¼ tsp ground ginger
  • 2 tsp garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp drippy almond butter (make sure only ingredient is nuts, no added sugars or oils)
  • salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400° and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Slice spaghetti squash in half and brush avocado oil over each half, then place face down on the sheet. Or place face down in a cake pan with enough water to cover the bottom. Cook for 20-25 minutes.
  • While the spaghetti squash bakes, cook chicken in avocado oil in a skillet until cooked through. Add salt and pepper to your liking then remove chicken to set aside.
  • In the same skillet, sauté onion and garlic in avocado oil until fragrant and translucent.
  • Push onions and garlic to the side and add in whisked eggs. Once mostly cooked, add in broccoli slaw (or whatever veggies you’d like).
  • Let that cook for a minute and mix together your sauce.
  • Now that your spaghetti squash is done, use a fork to create the “noodles” and put those into the skillet along with the chicken and sauce.
  • Mix together and serve warm with crushed nuts, a squeeze of lime, cilantro and green onion.
