Spaghetti Torte

Reviewed: Apr. 8, 2008

I made this with spaghetti squash. Cut squash in half, scrape out seeds, invert on plate with 1/3c water and microwave 8 minutes or until the squash can be easily scraped out with a fork.

Reviewed: Dec. 13, 2003

This recipe is equally as good made with bakery angelfood cake and fat free sugar free instant puddings and Free Cool Whip for fewer calories. If more orange flavor is desired add a teaspoon of frozen OJ concentrate.
