A Quick & Easy Weeknight Dinner Idea: Spaghetti Squash Taco Bowls

Lets taco 'bout this delicious spaghetti squash taco bowl. Summer is ending and the school year is just about to begin. While we all have been adjusting to a new routine and lifestyle, we are about to enter another new routine with kids (or adults) going back to school.

It's important that we maintain a healthy balance of work, life and health, and I find that we can begin by starting with the meals we prepare. When we're in a rush from work or preparing for your kids to get to school, it may be appealing to go through a drive-thru or throw something that’s in a box together.

This Spaghetti Squash Taco recipe — packed with nutrient-dense vegetables, protein and Vital Proteins® Beef Bone Broth Collagen  is simple and delicious to make. It requires minimal steps and you can put it together in less than an hour. It can also be a fun activity for the family to enjoy since there is a list of different toppings to choose from. While the spaghetti squash is in the oven for 45 minutes, you can even take this time to sit down and relax on the deck, prepare the vegetables or even fit in 30 minutes of downtime before the evening gets busy!

As we get into a new routine with the school year starting, give this quick and easy weeknight dinner recipe a try!
