Mozzarella
Spaghetti Squash Lasagna
- Serves 6-8
Author Notes
This is my favoite go to quick dinner that my family loves, doesn't break the bank and incoporates lots of healthy ingredients. Not saying it is low in calories though! You and your family will love it too. I can usually have it on the table in less than an hour since I brown the sausage while the squash is cooking in the microwave. —Susan Snyder
