Could you use skim milk instead of half and half?
Katie
You can but the result may not be as creamy and the points will be different. So, I recommend using the recipe builder to get the accurate point values.
Amy
Can you use zucchini noodles? Do you think they would hold up?
Katie
You can. I would add them at the last minute right before serving. Otherwise, they would disintegrate.
Paula
How many calories are in a serving?
Meghan
I know this recipe is from last year, but we just made it tonight! Delicious! One question is do you weigh 8 oz of uncooked pasta or is it cooked pasta?
Katie
I weigh uncooked pasta 🙂
Meghan
Thanks Katie! That would make more sense how you got 6 servings then! Thanks!!!
Pam
No bell pepper will This ruin the recipe ?
Katie
No - it should be just fine!
Bambi
Has this been tried using spaghetti squash instead of pasta?
Laura
Would love nutritional info on this... especially since I'm not doing WW and their numbers don't make sense to me.
Victoria
What kind of salsa ?
Sarah Lunsford
How would you make this ahead? Do you cook all the ingredients first before freezing? How long would you then cook it for in the oven?
Tammy Lowe
How much is a cooked serving of the Carbona spaghetti
Mandy
This was delicious. Even without the fat free versions of ingredients, the points were good on my plan. A keeper for sure.
