ZUCCHINI LASAGNA RECIPE BY TASTY
When it comes to comfort food, there are few meals as satisfying as warm, cheesy lasagna. This recipe is a lighter take on classic lasagna. It's made with thinly sliced zucchini in place of noodles, and it calls for ground turkey for the meat sauce, but it still contains everything you love about the classic dish.

Steps:
- Cut the ends off of the zucchini, and cut in half, lengthwise.
- Using a vegetable peeler, peel long strips of zucchini (these will be your "noodles") and set on a baking sheet lined with paper towels.
- Dab zucchini strips with a paper towel to absorb the excess moisture.
- In a large pot, add olive oil, onions, and garlic. Cook until translucent, about 4-5 minutes.
- Add ground turkey, and cook for another 4-5 minutes, or until the turkey has browned slightly.
- Pour in crushed tomatoes, basil, parsley, oregano, salt, pepper, tomato paste, and a bay leaf. Cover and let simmer for 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 375˚F (190˚C).
- In a bowl, combine ricotta cheese, egg, parsley, parmesan, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
- Using a baking dish, layer turkey sauce, zucchini strips, ricotta mixture, and parmesan. Repeat until there are 3 layers total, ending with the turkey sauce and topping that with parmesan cheese.
- Bake for 50 minutes (times and temperatures may vary depending on the oven).
- Let rest for at least 20 minutes.
- Enjoy!

CHEESY ZUCCHINI LASAGNA
This recipe is the easiest lasagna I've ever made, especially since you do not boil the noodles. It's meatless, yet my family (carnivores included) enjoys it. This is based on a recipe I found in the Betty Crocker Low Fat Low Cholesterol cookbook. VARIATIONS: For those who aren't watching their weight, feel free to use the full-fat versions of the cheeses. Also, you may use regular lasagne noodles instead of whole wheat.

ZUCCHINI LASAGNA ROLLS
Sometimes in the summer, home gardeners are blessed with an abundance of zucchini. Here's another way to use some of that lovely veggie. Thinly sliced zucchini is used, instead of lasagna noodles, to make these zucchini lasagna rolls. We like seasoned ground beef for the filling, but you could easily sub in some Italian sausage.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a 12x18-inch half sheet pan with foil and brush with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
- Wash, dry, and trim the ends of the zucchini. Carefully slice each zucchini lengthwise into seven 1/8-inch thick slices using a mandolin or sharp knife. Place zucchini slices on the prepared pan and sprinkle with salt. Toss slices to distribute salt.
- Cook in the preheated oven until zucchini slices are soft and pliable, about 10 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and place on several layers of paper towels to absorb any excess liquid. Set zucchini aside to cool.
- Meanwhile, heat remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add ground beef and season with Italian seasoning blend, fennel seeds, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Cook and stir ground beef until brown and crumbly, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in minced garlic and cook until garlic is fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
- Stir together ricotta, beaten egg, grated Parmesan cheese, minced parsley, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
- Combine marinara sauce and tomato paste in a separate bowl, stirring well.
- Spray a 9x11-inch baking dish with cooking spray. Spread 1/2 of the tomato mixture over the bottom of the baking dish.
- When the zucchini is cool enough to handle, blot with paper towels. Line up 6 or 7 slices of cooled zucchini on the sheet pan.
- Spread each slice of zucchini with about 1 1/2 tablespoons of the ricotta mixture. Sprinkle 1 1/2 tablespoons of the meat mixture over the slices. Setting 1 cup of grated mozzarella aside, sprinkle each zucchini slice with 1 tablespoon grated mozzarella.
- Beginning with the end nearest you, roll up each zucchini slice over the filling, jelly roll-fashion, and place in the prepared baking dish. Repeat until there are 4 rows of 7 zucchini rolls.
- Pour reserved marinara mixture over the zucchini rolls and sprinkle with reserved grated mozzarella.
- Bake in the preheated oven until zucchini rolls are heated through, the sauce is bubbly, and the cheese is melted, about 30 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool about 20 minutes. Garnish with minced fresh basil, if desired.
