Grande Baked Spaghetti

I have not tried this recipe, but wanted to post for later on this week. Prep times are estimates. This recipe is from Joanna Lund. The recipe states it can be frozen with success. It looks like a generous portion (which most of her recipes are). I've been in the mood for Spaghetti, but I won't eat anything without knowing the exact Diabetic Exchanges and this will fit perfectly and it sounds delicious. Each serving is only 201 calories. The Diabetic Exchanges are: 2 Vegetables, 1 Protein and 1 starch.
