INGREDIENTS
150g Firm Tofu
1/2 cup Low-Fat Cottage Cheese
1 medium Zucchini
1 cup Spinach
1/2 cup Marinara Sauce
1/2 medium Red Bell Pepper
1/4 medium Yellow Onion
2 cloves Garlic
2 tbsp Fresh Basil & Oregano
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Slice the zucchini lengthwise into thin strips to serve as lasagna noodles. Lightly salt and set aside to draw out extra moisture.
Press the tofu to remove excess water, then crumble it in a bowl.
In a skillet over medium heat, sauté the diced onion, minced garlic, and sliced red bell pepper in a drizzle of olive oil (optional) until they begin to soften. Add the crumbled tofu and cook for 3-4 minutes.
Stir in half of the marinara sauce along with a tablespoon of chopped basil and oregano. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat.
In a small ovenproof dish, start layering the ingredients: spread a thin layer of remaining marinara sauce at the bottom, place a layer of zucchini slices, add a layer of the tofu mixture, sprinkle half of the low-fat cottage cheese, and scatter a layer of fresh spinach. Repeat the layering process until all ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of zucchini slices and a drizzle of marinara on top.
Cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes until the top is slightly bubbly.
Garnish with any remaining fresh herbs before serving. Enjoy this light yet flavorful layered veggie lasagna!
