A nutritious twist on the classic lasagna, featuring spaghetti squash layered with ricotta, mozzarella, and marinara sauce for a comforting dish.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 medium spaghetti squash
  • 2 cups ricotta cheese
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 cups marinara sauce
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh basil for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven to 375°F (190°C)
  2. Prepare the Spaghetti Squash: Cut the spaghetti squash in half lengthwise and remove the seeds. Place the squash cut-side down on a baking sheet and roast for 30-40 minutes until tender.
  3. Scrape and Create the “Noodles”: Once cooked, let the squash cool slightly, then scrape it with a fork to reveal those spaghetti-like strands.
  4. Mix the Ricotta Filling: In a bowl, combine ricotta cheese, egg, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well until smooth.
  5. Start Building the Layers: In a baking dish, spread a layer of marinara sauce at the bottom.
  6. Layer half of the spaghetti squash on top of the sauce, followed by half of the ricotta mixture and a sprinkle of mozzarella.
  7. Repeat with another layer of marinara, spaghetti squash, ricotta, and top it off with the remaining mozzarella and Parmesan.
  8. Bake the Lasagna Covered: Cover the dish with foil and bake for 25 minutes.
  9. Finish Baking to Perfect Crispness: Remove the foil and bake an additional 10 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
  10. Garnish and Serve: Garnish with fresh basil before serving.

Notes

This lasagna pairs well with a simple arugula salad and garlic bread.
