Yes, you can still eat gnocchi! Normally made with potatoes, this recipe uses cauliflower instead. It’s almost like the cauliflower rice idea and the outcome is also the same, wherein the taste is just like gnocchi but without the carbs.

Unlike the flavour of squash, butternut squash is a lot sweeter and nuttier, making it the perfect pairing with a creamy sauce like Alfredo. You can even mix up the different sauces and try a sun-dried tomato, mushroom, or the classic cheesy Alfredo–the choice is yours!

Another delicious sweet potato spaghetti pairing, but this one combines sweet with savoury thanks to the beef ragout topping. If you haven’t tried beef ragout before either, it’s definitely one of those dishes that you should try at least once (or more than once if you love it). The ingredients are super easy to put together and the outcome is well worth it all.

It wouldn’t be a complete list of spaghetti recipe suggestions without classic spaghetti and meatballs!
