The Keto Dad Tips and Tricks:

• Bake the spaghetti squash in the oven, microwave or cook in a pressure cooker

• If the squash is too hard to cut, pierce in a few places and microwave for a 2-3 minutes.

• Freezes and reheats easily!

• The majority of carbs are from the Spaghetti Squash and ricotta cheese. With the higher protein and carb count, it may fit better into a flexible lifestyle.
