Notes

You can substitute shredded turkey for the shredded chicken. You can also swap the spaghetti squash for any cooked low-carb vegetable like broccoli, cauliflower, spinach, or zucchini. Cooking the chicken and spaghetti squash ahead of time will save preparation time. To reheat, warm the casserole in the microwave for 1-2 minutes covered with a paper towel, or heat in the oven at 350 degrees for 10-15 minutes until hot.
