Today, I am going to share with you, my favorite way to make Nutrisystem Chili. I love eating my Chili over a plate of spaghetti squash. I start preparing this meal about an hour before I want to eat. I prefer to bake my spaghetti squash whole. I don’t slice it or anything. Doing it this way, allows me to steam the insides…no need for added oils. I place the spaghetti squash in the oven on 350 degrees for 45-60 minutes depending on size. Once the squash is soft to the touch, I remove it from the oven to cool for about 15 minutes. After it has cooled, I cut it in half length-wise and remove the seeds. Then I fork pull the spaghetti squash, placing it on my plate. Next, I prepare the Nutrisystem Chili. As directed on the package, I remove the metal cover, replace the plastic cover and heat for 45 seconds in the microwave. When the Chili has finished cooking, I pour it over my plate of spaghetti squash. It is absolutely delicious!

My progress this week was too little to even mention. I am having my period. I was actually surprised to see that I hadn’t gained. I feel very bloated this month. Ugh.

I had a big non-scale victory this week. While out shopping one day, I found a dress I really liked. I NEVER wear dresses, so I was surprised I had found one that I liked. I decided to step outside my comfort zone and buy it. I assumed I would need a size large so that is what I bought. This morning, I put on the dress. It was too big! I am going to exchange it for a size medium or maybe even a small!

    Wow, these sounds different but still really good! I love squash so I am surprised that I have never tried making spaghetti squash before! It actually sounds a lot easier than I thought. 🙂 Thank you so much for sharing!

    Good for you on the new dress! I bet you will feel like a million bucks!
    I like spaghetti squash and eat it when in season. I didnt know cooking it whole was an option. I wouldnt imagine deseeding it as any more complicated. I might try doing it that way next time. Your chili looks good.
