Beef Fajita Spaghetti

Last night I made beef fajita spaghetti.  Instead of eating the spaghetti, I roasted a head of cauliflower and ate that with the meat and peppers.  It was darn good!  I did use a fajita seasoning packet which had a bit of wheat in the ingredients list but not enough to worry me.

I've found that having cauliflower and spaghetti squash on hand really makes things easy.  If I'm preparing dinner and it has pasta of some sort, I just sub mine with the squash, cauliflower or other veggie on hand.  I've added a few to my weekly grocery list even if I'm not sure how I will use it that week.  Having it in the pantry as a go-to item helps me avoid just going ahead and eating the pasta or potato I'm making for everyone else.

PS - I'm down to one diet coke a day and the rest is green tea flavored with non-aspartame flavor packets.
