If you are like me and do not like the grease that meat makes this is a great alternative and just as Delicious!
What you need: Cheese grader, 2 Bowls, Pot, Spoon, Measuring Cups and Spoons, Strainer, 8" or 9" Baking PanIngredients:
1 Medium Zucchini
2 Cups Marinara Sauce
1(10oz) Package of frozen Spinach thawed
1 1/2 Cups Cottage Cheese (of your choice) or (12oz) Ricotta Cheese
1/3 Cup grated Parmesan Cheese
2 Tablespoon Fresh or 1 1/2 Teaspoons Dried Oregano
(4oz) about 5 Mushrooms chopped
1 Package Dried Lasagna Noodles (you only need 8 noodles)
1 Cup Mozzarella Cheese
Directions:
Poor water into pot, bring to a boil and place Lasagna noodles inside. Let cook then drain.
Using cheese grader shred up the Zucchini then mix with Marinara in bowl.
Drain thawed spinach in a strainer then squeeze out extra moister by using a clean kitchen towel or a paper towel (I like to just use my hands to squeeze it out).
Mix the Spinach, Mushrooms, Cottage Cheese, Parmesan Cheese and Oregano in separate bowl.
Coat baking pan with 1/2 Cup of Marinara mixture. Then lay two Lasagna noodles on top of sauce. Add a couple of Tablespoons of Spinach and Cheese mixture. Spread evenly then poor 2 Tablespoons of Marinara sauce over noodles and sprinkle 1 Tablespoon of Mozzarella cheese.
Repeat Layering 3 more times beginning with 2 more noodles. On last top layer add remaining Mozzarella.
Cover with plastic wrap and then aluminum foil. refrigerate up to 24 hours.
Heat oven to 400 Degrees Fahrenheit. Remove plastic Wrap then place Aluminum foil on top of pan and bake for 45 Minutes. Remove foil and add 10 more minutes to time. You want Marinara to be bubbling along the edges. Remove from oven and let stand for 10 minutes.
ENJOY!!!!
