In my house we have to eat low carb has my husband is a diabetic. We had first switched over to whole wheat pasta for the higher fiber content to make sugar levels in the body rise slower.

But now we have found the wonderful world of spaghetti squash! It is so easy to make it in the Instant Pot and does not have a strong flavor at all just like eating pasta, but much better for you!

For this recipe, we used fresh sausage for our meat. But you could also use beef or chicken. Just depends on the meat you want to use.

I choose the sausage as it is a little spicier the way we have it done (we buy bulk with a live pig and have it made fresh and local by a butcher).

The first thing you want to do is follow the directions for Instant Pot Spaghetti Squash here. Then you can follow the directions below to make the spaghetti squash with meat sauce.
