We think this superstar veggie deserves the spotlight! π€© Ever wondered how spaghetti squash got it's name? It's stringy texture inside makes the prefect substitute for noodles, resembling spaghetti! ππ‘
Spaghetti squash is high in fiber and vitamin C, and is a great way to make any pasta dish nutrient-packed!

On average, a 2 1/2 inch garlic bulb yields about 8-12 cloves of fresh garlic? That's a lot of flavor! What is your favorite recipe using fresh garlic?
