INGREDIENTS
2 oz whole wheat lasagna noodles
1/2 cup low-fat ricotta cheese
1/4 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup tomato sauce
1/2 cup sliced zucchini
1 cup fresh spinach
1/2 cup sliced mushrooms
1 tsp olive oil
2 cloves minced garlic
1 tsp dried basil
1 tsp dried oregano
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 375°F.
Cook the whole wheat lasagna noodles according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Sauté the minced garlic until fragrant, then add sliced zucchini, mushrooms, and spinach. Cook for 3-4 minutes until vegetables are softened.
In a baking dish, spread a thin layer of tomato sauce. Layer with lasagna noodles, a portion of the ricotta cheese, sautéed vegetables, and drizzle some extra tomato sauce. Sprinkle a little dried basil and oregano.
Repeat layering until all components are used, finishing with a top layer of noodles spread with ricotta and topped with shredded mozzarella.
Cover the dish with foil and bake for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven, let it rest for 5 minutes, then serve warm.
