Come cook my Skinny Spaghetti Squash!

It has been a MINUTE since I have last posted friends! 7 long, horrible, dark days. 😭

LOL jk. I’ve actually been in Vancouver for the last week just getting a bunch of super unpleasant chores done like: renewing my drivers license, dentist, doctor, doctor appt #2 because #1 gave me the wrong prescription (don’t even get me STARTED on this one… it has basically ruined my last day at home 😡), + a bunch of other small things.

And the best part of my trip has been hanging out with the fam jam. This year was the first year that I didn’t go home for Christmas and I was having MAJOR fomo. So it was awesome to see everyone 🙂

While I’ve been in Vancouver I edited this video from Sunday in Santa Monica! I really wanted to share this SUPER SIMPLE Skinny Spaghetti Squash recipe because it is literally the best.

If you follow me on Instagram, you know I make my Skinny Spaghetti Squash at least once a week. 👌🏻

Why?

1. Spaghetti squash has 30 calories per cup. YES. 30 CALS PER CUP. 😱 😱 😱
2. There are 3 ingredients in this recipe
3. It takes 2 minutes to prep (no hours of chopping) and you just pop that bad boy in the oven
4. TASTES LIKE CRACK. K not like literal crack (not that I know what that tastes like…) but you get the point I am trying to make. 😂

To my dearest foodie friends, here are the instructions (summarized from video):

Ingredients:
– 1 medium spaghetti squash
– 1 jar of the best tomato sauce you can find (this is my fave: https://www.mezzetta.com/our-products/detail/marinara)
– fresh grated parmesan cheese
– extra virgin olive oil
– salt, pepper, Italian spice mix

Directions
– Preheat oven to 400 degrees fahrenheit (accidentally said celcius in the video)
– Cut your squash in half, cleanly remove all seeds and stringy stuff
– Lightly coat the inside of the squash in extra virgin olive oil
– Sprinkle on some ground sea salt, pepper, and an Italian spice mix
– Place squash face-down on a baking sheet
– Bake for 30 – 45 mins (small squash: 25 – 30 mins, medium: 30 – 40, large: 40 – 45)
– When top is soft and a bit sunken, take out of oven and flip over. Fill with tomato sauce. Cover very generously with your grated parmesan cheese. Add a bit more Italian spice mix on top.
– Broil for 3 – 5 mins
– Let cool, and enjoy!!!

IF YOU MAKE THIS RECIPE, PLEASE TAKE A PIC AND SEND IT TO ME!!! There is literally nothing in this world that makes me happier than sharing the love of food with friends.

Okay off to go enjoy my last day in Canada!

Podcasting IS SO MUCH FUN. It feels so……. intimate? Like we can get to know eachother that much easier?

For real though.

Also I love podcasting because you can listen to Skinny Belle – The Podcast while driving, working (if you bad AF), working out…. anything really. So much easier to multi-task with podcasts!

Anywho, if you are not on the podcast train yet… GET ON IT!🚂 And your first stop should be Skinny Belle – The Podcast. Obviously. 😉

Choo choo my friends. All aboard.

Below is my latest episode!

This one was all about how to create your own personal brand, instagram tips + that pesky new algorithm we all hate so much, and I did a big life update!

I’ve never really talked about branding or marketing on Skinny Belle before, even though it was what I studied in university and worked in for the last 4 years. What did you guys think? Let me know if you want to hear more about branding/marketing because I barely touched even the tippity top of the iceberg in this podcast episode.

In the “life update” portion of today’s podcast, I shared some exciting things that are going on in my world lately, such as: travel plans, almost dying in hot pilates, celebrity stalking…. you know. Normal things that a 26 year old lady like myself does. 😜

Anywho, this episode is really entertaining, and I highly recommend you give it a listen.

The best things to do in Venice, California!

I feel like Venice has a bad reputation. Or, just the wrong reputation. In my not-so-humble opinion. 😜 lolz

When you think of Venice, California, you probably think about the boardwalk, tacky t-shirts, hot dogs, and just straight-up weirdos. 😣That, ladies and germs, is NOT WHAT IS UP.

You can see that ridiculousness in about t – 5 minutes and then you will be good for life. I promise.

This vlog is all about the great side of Venice. The stuff you actually want and neeeeeed to see. Venice is the freakin’ best! It just tends to get a little misrepresented at times by the tourism industry.

So check out my vlog where my boyfriend and I explored Venice for the day. We went to some places we already know, and checked out some new spots as well. This vlog, covers everything you need to know about the best of Venice.

Oh yeah, and we got into a fight part way through the day hahaha. I included a bit about that. Because there is nothing worse than people pretending everything is peachy-keen when it’s not. Sometimes, while touristing, you have a little spat. It happens. Then you move on and get some prosecco. LOL! Watch the video, you’ll see what I’m talking about. 😉

This podcast is one of my favourites.

Today, I talk what it was like to move in with my boyfriend after only knowing each other for 5 months. 😱 Nuts, I know. 🌰

It was a pretty crazy risk for both of us, because this involved cross-country relocation, and I shared the whole dang this on Skinny Belle – The Podcast.

Some topics covered?

– A detailed outline of Troy (bae) and I’s story

– How the first 3 months of living together is going

– Some major #GirlProblems I am having living with a boy (hehe)

– Advice if you too are thinking of moving in with your boyfriend!

This episode is really fun, and easy to listen to. I love to listen to podcasts while I am working out or putting my makeup on. Just a little suggestion for listening 😋

Here are some pull quotes from this episode of Skinny Belle – The Podcast:

FINALLY!!! I filmed my favourite natural beauty glam 😊

Yes yes yes!!! I am sewwww happpehhhhh this is here. Took me a minute but girl finally filmed my classic Natural Beauty Glam tutorial.

I’ve worked with a number of makeup artists over my 9 year modeling career (literally, hundreds of them) and learned a thing or two in the process. So, it’s about time I share some of my best tips and tricks for glamming! 😁

Personally, I do love to try and use makeup to enhance my natural features, instead of cover them up and change how I look. That is why I am such a fan of this kind of glam! 💋 There’s a bunch of super useful tippity tips in this tutorial, so check it out and let me know what you think!

If you’re looking for the product list of everything I used in this video, I’ve linked it all on Skinny Belle Youtube below the tutorial.

This is one of my classic “Robyn” glams, that I do about 70% of the time. 😄 Hope you like the video! If you do, make sure you throw a thumbs up on that bad boy. 👍🏻

Hope you’re having a fab week! 💞
