Roasted Spaghetti Squash with Vegan Butter Chicken

This Roasted Spaghetti Squash with Vegan Butter Chicken has all the right things to keep you warm this winter!

So things have gotten a little crazy around here in the last week, and by “here” I mean globally . We, in TORONTO, ONTARIO are in self-isolation mode. I personally have lost all my classes but am getting on virtually starting this week. We are in unprecedented territory with no end in sight. Shit is the most def tense.

I had a rough day yesterday. I was sad, angry, and fearful just to name a few emotions but this morning I made a conscious choice to wake up, speak gratitude into existence and change my perspective. My family and I are healthy, I have beautiful food to prepare and eat and I have a loving partner and two of the best cats on the planet. I am good. I have decided to limit my television watching as it does nothing but stress me out. These are difficult times and as an empath I have to be careful because I’m essentially an emotional sponge.

ANYHOOOOO, this is not the reason for this post. This post is all about spaghetti squash and vegan butter chicken. Did that get your attention?

I THOUGHT IT MIGHT.

Here’s the recipe for this beauty. None of us need any more reminders to wash our hands so I’ll leave you with, I love you.
