INGREDIENTS
1 medium Zucchini (196g)
1 medium Red Bell Pepper (119g)
1 cup sliced Mushrooms (72g)
1/2 cup Marinara Sauce (125g)
1/2 cup Part-Skim Ricotta Cheese (124g)
1/2 cup Shredded Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese (56g)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Slice the zucchini lengthwise into thin strips to serve as lasagna noodles.
Chop the red bell pepper into strips and slice the mushrooms.
Place the zucchini slices, bell pepper strips, and mushrooms on a baking sheet. Drizzle lightly with olive oil if desired and season with salt and pepper.
Roast the vegetables in the oven for 12-15 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized.
While the vegetables are roasting, warm the marinara sauce in a small saucepan over medium heat.
In a small bowl, mix the ricotta cheese with a pinch of salt and pepper for added flavor.
To assemble the lasagna, lay a layer of zucchini slices on a baking dish, spread a thin layer of marinara sauce over them, dollop a layer of ricotta, and sprinkle some roasted bell peppers and mushrooms. Repeat the layers until all ingredients are used, finishing with a top layer of marinara and a generous sprinkle of shredded mozzarella.
Return the assembled dish to the oven and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes, or until the mozzarella melts and turns slightly golden.
Remove from oven, allow to cool slightly, and serve warm.
