It's Halloween. Time for Brain-Healthy SPOOK-ghetti!<br />

By: Jan Fair / A No-Brainer Minute<br />

I<br />

'm so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers. That was said by Canadian author<br />

Lucy Maud Montgomery in Anne of Green Gables. I agree. And I'd add that I'm so glad<br />

I live in a world where there's a Halloween. Such a fun holiday. The only hitch is we need to be<br />

vigilant when it comes to what we eat. So in the recipe below, check the label of that jar of spaghetti<br />

sauce and avoid ones with a lot of sugar, salt & chemicals. And, of course avoid Halloween candy.<br />

*Good-4-U Spook-ghetti with Eyeballs<br />

• spaghetti sauce (jar or homemade)<br />

• spaghetti (spinach/bean/etc); or use<br />

a spiralizer to make spaghetti out<br />

of zucchini and/or other squash<br />

• mozzarella balls (vegan or fresh)<br />

• black olives (sliced)<br />

Add spices such as garlic, oregano, etc.<br />

[Optional 5th ingredient: meat balls or<br />

vegan meat balls.]<br />
