INGREDIENTS
1 large Zucchini (~196g)
1 medium Red Bell Pepper (~119g)
1/2 cup Marinara Sauce (~125g)
1/2 cup Low-Fat Ricotta Cheese (~124g)
2 ounces Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese (~56g)
1 teaspoon Olive Oil (~5g)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Slice the zucchini lengthwise into thin strips using a mandoline or sharp knife to create your 'noodles'.
Chop the red bell pepper into strips.
Lightly toss the zucchini slices and bell pepper with olive oil, and spread them out on a baking sheet.
Roast the vegetables in the oven for about 10-12 minutes until they are tender and slightly caramelized.
Meanwhile, warm the marinara sauce in a small saucepan over low heat.
In a small bowl, stir the low-fat ricotta cheese to ensure a smooth consistency.
Begin assembling the lasagna in a small baking dish by layering roasted zucchini slices, a thin layer of marinara sauce, dollops of ricotta cheese, a sprinkle of mozzarella, and red bell pepper strips.
Repeat the layers once more, finishing with a final sprinkle of mozzarella on top.
Place the baking dish back in the oven and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes until the cheese has melted and the layers are heated through.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
