Butternut Squash & Spinach Lasagna

Ooey gooey butternut squash and spinach with a creamy cheese sauce- Yes!

We’ve all been indugling these past few weeks and now its time to lighten up the diet- a bit. Taking small steps is the best way to insure success. Just remove one of two things from your diet each week until you have a new healthy habit in place.

Eating less animal protein like beef is the easiest thing for me to cut out of my diet. And it saves you in the wallet as well.

Make this vegetarian lasagna, which while meatless, is incredibly satisfying. This recipe takes a little bit of time- roasting the squash, making the puree, cooking the spinach and assembling and then baking. Make this on a Sunday afternoon and you’ll have it for your Meatless Monday. It’s such a large casserole, it’ll last your family for at least two meals.

This recipe is about 400 calories per serving. 23 grams of protein and 18 grams of fat.

Enjoy! Here’s to healthy habits…
