Pregnancy guidance

Recommended

Boiled or baked spaghetti squash is highly recommended during pregnancy. It supplies dietary fiber, potassium, folate, and vitamin C with very few calories and a comforting noodle-like texture. Cooking the squash until tender ensures complete destruction of any agricultural microbes. Scrape the warm strands with a fork and top with pasteurized marinara sauce and lean ground meat for a wholesome, lower-carbohydrate dinner.
