Spaghetti Squash Lasagna Ditching the noodles saves on calories and makes room for plenty of cheese. After a trip to the oven, the spaghetti squash noodles will have absorbed some of the tomato and cheesy goodness. It has all the characteristic lasagna comforts that we need when the thermometer dips—the stretchy cheese, the chunky, hearty red sauce, the load-up-your-fork and think-warm-thoughts appeal—but is lightened up enough to be a healthy weeknight meal.

This Spaghetti Squash Lasagna is everything: Freezer-friendly, can be made ahead, perfectly portable, ideal for a potluck or a crowd, and makes enough for leftovers. I think the only thing this recipe doesn't do is clean up after itself (how inconsiderate). I love the use of spaghetti squash as an alternative to lasagna noodles so much that I refuse to eat it any other way. I modify this recipe and it's just amazing, basically just adding spices and a mix of ground beef and Italian sausage with the marinara sauce… which probably takes away the "skinny" part of it.
