Spaghetti - Clean eating


My kids love spaghetti, and I mean love it! So I have been on the hunt for a clean or at least healthier version of it that actually tastes good and is not full of sugar! I think I finally found it!! My whole family loved this one, so it is definitely kid approved. Best part is that it didn't take a lot of prep time either which is what I have found with other recipes out there. I liked this because being a busy mom I like to save time when I can, especially in the kitchen. If you try this let me know what you think about it.
