Fat Free Spinach Lasagna Recipe

Enjoy a tasty guilt free lasagna if you just so happen to love Italian food like myself. This is still tasty, and of course healthy for the family.

Ingredients:


1 can tomato paste (6 oz.)
1 can tomato sauce (8 oz.)
1 3/4 cups of cold water
2 "eggs" Egg substitutes (e.g., Egg Beaters--Fat Free)
1 container Fat Free Ricotta cheese (15 oz)
1/2 tsp. of salt
1 pkg frozen chopped spinach (10 oz.), thawed and drained
1/2 lb. sliced mozzarella cheese--Fat Free or Low Fat cheese
1/2 lb. Uncooked lasagna noodled, broken in half

Instructions:
Empty spaghetti sauce mix into saucepan, add tomato paste, tomato sauce and
water. Heat, stirring until well blended. Remove from heat. Beat Egg
substitutes in a large bowl and add Ricotta cheese, spinach, salt and 1/4
cup Parmesan cheese. Lightly grease (cooking oil spray, 1 second) bottom of
13x9x2-inch baking dish; cover with a little sauce. Layer noodles, half of
the cheese-spinach mixture, half of the mozzarella cheese, and half of the
tomato sauce. Repeat layers, ending with tomato sauce. Sprinkle with 1/4
cup Parmesan cheese. Cover dish with a lightly greased (cooking oil spray,
1/2 second) sheet of aluminum foil and bake in preheated 350 degree oven for
60 minutes or until noodles are tender. Let stand 10 minutes before cutting
into squares and serving.
