Spaghetti Squash Lasagna Recipe

The more cheese the better, so feel free to really cheese up your squash into one of the best lasagna dishes you can eat!

You might be surprised how good it really is and how little it needs the addition of beef or sausage to create a full fledged dish.

This recipe is also a fantastic one for a crowd, so make up and throw along side some bread sticks for a power meal.

It’s clearly a meatless mix, but you could easily add some cooked chicken or cooked Italian sausage if you want to change it up more!

How to Layer Spaghetti Squash Lasagna

Before you get started, you have to prep and cook the spaghetti squash. If you do not know how to do that, please check out my HOW TO MAKE SPAGHETTI SQUASH instructions. 

This recipe assumes that your noodles are boiled and soft as well as your spaghetti squash scored and ready to layer. 

Preheat oven to 375.

Add 2 eggs to the container of cottage cheese and mix well.

 

Alternately you can put the cottage cheese into a mixing bowl, add the eggs and mix well.

I just prefer to dirty less dishes, don’t we all?

Place a small amount of pasta sauce in the bottom of a 9×13 baking pan.

Place 3 lasagna noodles into the bottom of the pan.

Top with a layer of sauce

half of the squash

half of the cottage cheese

and half of the spinach

Top with a layer of cheese.

Repeat the process with a second layer of each

Once you have the second layer, add 3 lasagna noodles to the top, a layer of sauce and cheese.

Cover tightly with aluminum foil and bake for 35-40 minutes.

Remove foil and return to the oven for an additional 5-10 minutes or until cheese is melted on the top.

Let set for 10 minutes before serving.
