Baked Butternut Squash Raisin And Pine Nut Lasagna

This was one of my favorite weight watchers recipes and a nice variation on the standard red sauce lasagna. It is creamy and a bit sweet from the squash and raisins and oh so satifying. as presented here, it is a bit higher in points than the original (7 versus 6 points) but i think is a more appealing, creamier dish. whether you are doing ww or not, you'll enjoy this one. i've also added 1/2 cup of part-skim ricotta (4 points total) to the middle layer at times with good success.
