Baked Spaghetti Weight Watchers Friendly
I adapted this from a light & tasty cookbook. It was so delicious that i had to put it in the fridge before it was cool just to stop myself from eating it all! For wwers, this works to 6 points per serving. I use ragu no sugar added tomato & basil sauce to keep the calorie/fat content as low as possible. note: ww has changed their points system several times since this is posted, and you should recalculate the points by the current system.
