Spaghetti Squash Patties With Avocado and Poached Egg

Spaghetti squash recipe and content provided by Brent Totty

Seven simple and flavorful ingredients make up this delectable Paleo and keto breakfast recipe. Oven-baked spaghetti squash has a deeply nutty flavor that comes out when slow-roasted with avocado oil and sea salt.

Creamy avocado sits below the slightly crunchy spaghetti squash, making a delicious nest for the runny yolk to mix with the contrasting textures of the dish.

The spaghetti squash can be cooked and stored for 3-4 days, making this recipe versatile enough to be used multiple days in a row.
