A number of people here use spaghetti squash in place of many other
foods. You can serve it with just about any kind of sauce and it will
taste good. Not too long ago (maybe 3 or 4 months) there was a whole
series of messages having to do with the ways to cook and use spaghetti
squash. Maybe you can do a search for them.

Hi Bettye, welcome to the group!

1 cup of cooked spaghetti squash has about 8 carbs. One ounce of
mushrooms has about .6 carbs. You can look up/log carbs at Fitday.com
and/or the usda nutritional database (for which someone already provided
a link).

Betty I fix spaghetti squash for my husband a lot. He eats it with
small amounts of home made spaghetti sauce. I make chicken alfredo and
pour it on top of the squash strands. I also made a LC stroganoff the
other night and was able to gently scrape out the strands, place them
back into the squash half and pour stroganoff on top and serve it in
its own "bowl"
