INGREDIENTS
1 medium Zucchini (~196g)
0.5 medium Eggplant (~200g)
0.5 cup Low-Fat Ricotta Cheese (~125g)
0.25 cup Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese (~28g)
0.5 cup Tomato Sauce (~125g)
1 large Egg (~50g)
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Slice the zucchini into thin lengthwise strips. Slice the eggplant into thin rounds.
Lightly toss the eggplant slices in olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and roast them on a baking sheet for about 15 minutes until tender.
While the eggplant roasts, prepare the zucchini strips by lightly salting and letting them sit for 10 minutes to reduce moisture, then pat them dry.
In a bowl, combine the low-fat ricotta cheese with the egg and half of the tomato sauce. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Layer the roasted eggplant, fresh zucchini strips, ricotta mixture, remaining tomato sauce, and a sprinkle of mozzarella cheese in a small baking dish. Repeat layers until ingredients are used, ending with a light topping of mozzarella.
Bake in the oven at 400°F for 20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the lasagna is heated through.
Allow to cool for a few minutes before serving.
