Spaghetti Squash Lasagna

See, I promised! Here is the recipe for spaghetti squash lasagna... Now hopefully you have one laying on your cupboard so that you can try this little piece of heaven. It was so yummy that you just need to try it. I couldn't believe how much it actually tasted like pasta... and all the stuff that went with it? It really was like eating lasagna, but much healthier! :)

Side note: in the original recipe it calls for making 4 individual servings in separate baking dishes. You all know that I am all about quick and easy, so I went with a bigger baking dish and just cut it into 4 servings...




Spaghetti Squash Lasagna
(recipe found at www.skinnytaste.com)

2 cups marinara sauce
3 cups cooked roasted spaghetti squash
1 cup part skim ricotta
8 teaspoons parmesan cheese
6 ounces part skim shredded mozzarella

See instructions for roasting a spaghetti squash here. Preheat oven to 375. In an 8x8" baking dish ladle 1 cup marinara sauce on the bottom. Top with 3 cups cooked spaghetti squash and spread it out evenly. Top with 1 cup ricotta. Sprinkle 4 teaspoons parmesan cheese and 3 ounces mozzarella on top of ricotta. Add the remaining sauce, parmesan and mozzarella cheese to the top. Cover with foil and bake for 15-20 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the edges begin to bubble; uncover and cook an additional 5 minutes.

Serves: 4
Points: 6
