Want an easy summer dinner the kids will enjoy? This baked spaghetti recipe is just the thing. It's basically spaghetti and tomato sauce in a casserole. But this recipe has an extra ingredient that adds a slightly sweet, small nutritional boost: pureed butternut squash.The nice thing about this dish is it can be made in advance and frozen. Just be sure to thaw completely in the fridge before re-heating.
