Ingredients
1 Spaghetti Squash
1lb Chicken Breast Tenders
1 Bag Frozen Oriental Vegetables
4T Soytaki Sauce, Trader Joe’s (or any soy/teriyaki sauce)

Step 2: While you are browning your chicken tenders, pierce a whole spaghetti squash with a fork and microwave for 6 minutes. Cut in half and remove seeds. Place back in the microwave for an additional 6 minutes, covered.
Step 3: Add the full bag of oriental vegetables to the chicken. Stir in 4T of the Soyvaki sauce (or your favorite soy/teriyaki sauce).
Step 4: Cut each of the squash in half so that you get four servings, take a fork and turn the squash into spaghetti. Spoon some of the mixture into each portion of the spaghetti squash. Sprinkle with peanuts (optional).
