Happy meatless Monday! I had some leftover spinach and part-skim ricotta in my fridge and was looking for a new way to use them.  I came across this recipe and decided to give it a try since it seemed to be lots of flavors I typically enjoy together.  Spaghetti squash is one of my most favorite winter vegetables, it is just so versatile! 

While the squash was in the microwave, I got everything going in the pan and then added the squash strands.  Once that was all mixed up, I was able to add the cheesy goodness. 


Once everything was coated in ricotta I transferred it over to a baking dish to finish in the oven.  I did half the recipe the first time I made it, so that's why it's a bit shallow in the pan.  This was nice and easy to prep for lunches for the week ahead.


While this was delicious and low on the WW point scale, I didn't find it super filling on its own.  I served it with a piece of fresh artisan bread for lunch but I think it would also be great as a side with a piece of grilled chicken to round out the meal.

Would you eat this on its own or serve it as a side?  What would you serve it with?
