Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds zucchini (about 4 medium), cut lengthwise into 1/4-inch slices 15 ounces low-fat ricotta 10 ounces frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry 1/2 cup grated Parmesan (2 ounces), divided 1 large egg, lightly beaten Coarse salt and pepper 7 cups marinara sauce, divided 15 no-boil lasagna noodles (3/4 pound total) 1 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella (4 ounces), divided

Directions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In large pot of boiling water, cook zucchini until just softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain and let dry on a paper-towel-lined baking sheet.

Stir together ricotta, spinach, 1/4 cup Parmesan, egg, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Spread 1 cup marinara in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Top with 3 noodles, one-quarter the ricotta mixture, one-quarter the zucchini, and 1 cup tomato sauce; repeat three times. Top with remaining 3 noodles, 2 cups marinara, and 1/2 cup mozzarella.

Cover with parchment-lined foil and bake 30 minutes. Uncover and sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup mozzarella and 1/4 cup Parmesan; bake 20 minutes more. Let cool 10 to 15 minutes before serving.

    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: 5 stars       03/23/2015   WOW. This is the first EASY lasagna recipe I ever made and it it SO DELICIOUS! I have used zucchini in lasagna before but boiling it 4-5 minutes is so important, it makes the zucchini soft and stick well to the rest of the lasagne. I used Martha's Marinara sauce recipe and the lasagna was not runny nor dry, it was PERFECT (why buy canned or jared sauce when making your own marinara is so easy and so much cheaper and yummier!!!??). I will make this again!  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: 5 stars       01/27/2014   This was one of THE best lasagna's I've had in a long time. It was delicious and I didn't miss any meat or loads of lasagna noodles. In fact, I made it even healthier by using fat free mozzarella, only 6 Barilla no-boil noodles and only 1 jar of marinara and still it was so good I had an extra helping! You'd think it would be watery due to the zucchini but it wasn't the slightest bit watery at all. It's nice to know I can enjoy one of my favorite dishes again and not feel guilty!  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       01/26/2014   This was very good. I sautéed the zucchini slices instead of boiling water method. Worked fine. Really good. You must try this.  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       01/20/2014   Very good. I take it a step further. I slice zucchini and eggplant lengthwise about 1/4" thick. I put the slices onto an electric griddle, first spraying the slices with PAM, and cook on each side quickly. Then assemble as usual to make a delicious lasagna. Lasagna-making is always labor-intensive, but this is worth the effort!
