Lasagna
- 8 lasagna noodles
- 2 cups marinara sauce
- 1/2 cup grated mozzarella cheese
- chopped fresh basil optional for garnish
Zucchini Filling
- 1 tsp olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 2 medium zucchini grated
- 1 1/4 cups ricotta cheese part skim
- 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 1 large egg beaten
- salt and pepper to taste
Preheat oven to 350°F and set aside a 9x13 inch baking dish.
Cook lasagna noodles according to package directions. Meanwhile, crush garlic cloves and finely grate zucchini, patting dry with paper towels to remove excess water.
Place a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add oil and garlic and saute for about 30 seconds. Add zucchini and saute for 4-5 minutes.
In a medium bowl, combine zucchini, ricotta, parmesan, egg, salt and pepper in a medium bowl.
Lay noodles out flat on a work surface and spread 1/3 cup of zucchini mixture across each noodle.
Roll up each noodle into a bundle with your fingertips, and set aside.
Spread 1 cup of marinara sauce into baking dish. Place rolled noodles seam-side down onto marinara.
Top with the remaining marinara sauce and sprinkle with the mozzarella.
Bake for 40 minutes. Remove from oven and top with optional basil before serving.
