ZUCCHINI LASAGNA (LASAGNE) - LOW CARB



Zucchini Lasagna (Lasagne) - Low Carb image

Great for anyone going low carb OR who has so many zucchini, they don't know what to do!! :) We found the sauce to be very mild. I think it would be better with twice as much garlic. I boiled my zucchini slices for about 3 minutes so they were partially cooked. I wanted to make sure they were soft in the finished dish or I knew the kids wouldn't eat them. ;) The cottage cheese provides a slightly tangy note. I think we would have preferred ricotta, but that is personal taste. I use my 11x7 baking dish and got 6 pieces the size of what you see in my photos. Both of the guys ate two so it fed 4 of us, and I double the meat. Adjust the recipe accordingly for your family.

Eggplant, Zucchini and Portabella Lasagne image

Delicious pasta-free lasagna! Feel free to add more herbs to the tomato layer. I added some chopped fresh rosemary and parsley because I had it at home. I also added some red chilli to the cheese layer for a little more zip.

Time 1h

Yield 4 Portions, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 lb zucchini, ends removed and sliced lengthwise into wide, flat strips
1 large portabella mushroom, sliced into strips
1 large eggplant, ends removed and sliced lengthwise into wide, flat strips
15 ounces frozen chopped spinach, thawed, thoroughly drained and patted dry
16 ounces canned tomato sauce
2 garlic cloves, chopped fine
1 egg white
1 cup fat-free ricotta cheese
1/2 cup shredded fat free mozzarella cheese
1 tablespoon reduced-fat parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon chopped basil
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 pinch nutmeg

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
  • Set out a row of several paper towels (as you cook the veggies, transfer them to the paper towels to drain excess moisture). Spritz a large pan evenly with nonstick spray, and bring to high heat.
  • Once hot, lay as many zucchini and mushroom slices as you can fit flat in the pan, and cook for about 2 minutes per side. Continue until all slices are cooked, removing the pan from heat and re-spraying it between batches.
  • Cook eggplant slices for about 3 minutes per side, continuing to work in batches (removing and re-spraying pan each time).
  • Next, in a large bowl, mix the spinach, egg white, ricotta cheese, basil, salt and nutmeg. Stir well and set aside.
  • Spray a deep 8" X 8" pan with nonstick spray. Pour half (8 oz.) of the tomato sauce into the bottom of the pan. Sprinkle with one clove chopped garlic.
  • Then, layer half of the veggie slices on top in assorted order. Spread half of the spinach mixture on top.
  • Layer with remaining veggies, and then spread the rest of the spinach mixture on top. Cover with the remaining tomato sauce and the rest of the chopped garlic.
  • Then, evenly top the lasagna with the mozzarella and grated cheese. Finally, bake uncovered for 30 minutes (or until the cheese on top starts to brown).
  • Let cool, cut into 4 pieces, and dig in!
