Sweet or Savory Spaghetti Squash Pancakes

A whole serving of vegetables in a pancake?!

Ingredients:

• 1 cup cooked spaghetti squash (Microwave 15 minutes turning ever 5 minutes, or bake at 400 degrees F for 1 hour) (42 Calories) 
• 2-4 tablespoon whole wheat flour (50-100calories), however it may cook better with all-purpose flour. I used 2 tablespoons, but some recipes call for 1/4 cup.
• 1 egg white (17 calories) 
• Cooking Spray

Directions

• Combine squash and egg white in a large bowl.
• Separate the strands. 
• Add flour one tablespoon at a time and stir until the mixture becomes like dough. 
• Spray pan with cooking spray.
• Make thin pancakes and cook until golden brown on each side. 
• Optional: Can also bake in conventional oven for 20 minutes at 350 degrees F. 

Toppings: salt and pepper, sour cream, salsa, or applesauce.
