Chile-lime Turkey & Spaghetti Squash Meal-prep Bowls
  1. Place spaghetti squash, cut-side down, in a microwave-safe dish and add 2 tablespoons water. Microwave, uncovered, on High until the flesh is tender, 10 to 15 minutes; set aside to cool.

  2. Meanwhile, heat 1 ½ teaspoons oil in a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add ground turkey; cook, crumbling with a wooden spoon, until browned and cooked through. Transfer to a plate and set aside.

  3. Add the remaining 1 ½ teaspoons oil to the pan; heat over medium heat. Add green pepper and onion; cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Add summer squash; cook, stirring, just until the squash is tender, about 3 minutes. Stir in the turkey, tomatoes, chile-lime seasoning, salt and crushed red pepper (if using); heat through.

  4. Scrape the squash flesh from the shells with a fork; divide among 4 single-serving containers (about 1 cup each). Top each with 1¼ cups of the turkey mixture. Seal the containers and refrigerate for up to 4 days.

  5. To reheat 1 container, vent the lid and microwave on High until steaming, 2 ½ to 3 minutes. Top with 2 tablespoons queso fresco and 1 tablespoon cilantro.
