This made a wonderful dinner last night and I've added it to my cookbook of vegetarian dishes to make again. The only changes I'll make are to put a layer of ricotta on top of the spaghetti squash, and then layer the spinach on top of that, rather than mixing them together. I'm also going to use grated mozzarella instead of the slices, as the slices didn't melt as much as I'd like. We really enjoyed this and thanks for sharing.

This was really tasty and seemed pretty healthy. I made a number of changes. I eliminated the sliced Mozzarella cheese as the recipe had plenty of cheese without it (ricotta and parmesan are enough for me). I added a layer of frozen peas to add more veggies. I eliminated the extra added salt as ricotta and parmesan cheeses are both filled with plenty of salt.

We loved this recipe -- it's good, filling and healthy besides. I used some pasta sauce I had in the freezer -- so it may have been a bit more than the one cup mentioned in the ingredients -- but otherwise made as directed. Although my family may like traditional lasagna better this is a great and healthier choice. Thanks for sharing!

Delicious! I've always liked Spaghetti squash, and now I'm kicking myself for not planting some in my garden. This is so good Deb! I also used recipe #368427 for cooking my squash. The only substitute I made was to use sliced smoked provolone instead of mozzarella. This is a recipe I will be using often! Made for Everyday Tag
