Thanks for joining Sarah and me for Meatless Monday today. I am all about enjoying all of the great summer produce and finding new combinations and creations with it. When my friend, Gail, gave me some delicious squash from her garden last week, I knew it would be perfect for this Triple Squash & Tomato Pie. Breakfast for dinner? Dinner for breakfast? Either way it’s quite delicious!
Triple Squash & Tomato Pie
What makes this Triple Squash & Tomato Pie so delicious is the the crust is made from Spaghetti Squash-yup you can easily make a crust with spaghetti squash by baking it until it gets crispy then adding all of your other ingredients. The other 2 squash in this pie are yellow squash and green or zucchini squash.
I love to use eggs as one of my vegetarian protein sources and this triple squash & tomato pie is the perfect place for them. I’ve used 6 extra large eggs in here which yields about 5 servings of pie. Pile in some fresh spinach and sweet cherry tomatoes and you are good to go. I have alternated layers of yellow and green squash then topped with the spinach and finished off with tomatoes. I added some feta cheese but it’s totally optional.
I like to make this for dinner and then eat the rest for breakfast during the week. I just cut it into portion sized pieces and then warm it up in the microwave for breakfast. I am more of a savory breakfast eater than a sweet so I find it just perfect.

Love using spaghetti squash to make pies – so yummy! This looks delicious too 🙂
Thanks so much it’s a great healthier option for sure
InLinksz doesn’t appear to be working (on Annmarie’s blog either). Next time I have summer squash, I’ll have to try this. Because you know I can eat it! Even thought I am linking up a summer squash recipe, lol!
In link has been wonky lately I rescued your link thanks for joining!

Deborah– this looks soooo good! I have to try!
Thanks so much! I love finding new ways to eat my eggs
I don’t often regret not eating eggs, but this looks so good I kind of wish that I did. 😊
I know! I think of you when I do egg dishes. That is really the reason I am not a vegan I need them in my life
Yum, this looks delicious! I love all the veggies in it. I’ve been trying to think of a good dish to make where I could have leftovers for lunch during the week and this sounds like a good option.
I love left overs and this will definitely work!
This looks amazing! Feta cheese is eggs is the best, isn’t it? And you know I’m all about the tomatoes this season!
I know me too! Feta makes everything better
That looks amazing!! I love all the squashes, I will definitely be trying soon.
Fabulous hope you enjoy
This looks like a great breakfast-for-dinner option! The hubby is trying to ease up on gluten, so this would not only be a great meal for him, but it looks like something I’d also enjoy 😉

It’s perfect for dinner too!
Zucchini is one of my favorite vegetables! And love the idea of using spaghetti squash for a crust.
