INGREDIENTS
1 medium Zucchini (196g)
½ cup Low-Fat Ricotta Cheese (124g)
½ cup Marinara Sauce (125g)
1 large Egg White (33g)
½ cup sliced Mushrooms (35g)
½ cup Spinach (15g)
100g Firm Tofu
2 cloves Garlic
2 tbsp Fresh Basil, chopped
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Slice the zucchini lengthwise into thin strips to resemble lasagna noodles. Lightly salt them and set aside to draw out excess moisture.
In a bowl, combine the low-fat ricotta cheese with the egg white, chopped garlic, and fresh basil. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
Dice the firm tofu into small cubes. In a separate bowl, gently toss tofu cubes with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Layer the zucchini slices in a small baking dish. Spread a thin layer of marinara sauce over the zucchini, then add a layer of ricotta mixture.
Scatter the tofu cubes, sliced mushrooms, and spinach evenly over the cheese layer. Add a light drizzle of marinara sauce on top.
Repeat the layers if your dish depth allows, finishing with a layer of zucchini topped with marinara sauce and a dollop of the ricotta mixture.
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, until the vegetables are tender and the flavors meld.
Allow the lasagna to cool for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with extra fresh basil if desired.
