Zucchini Noodle Lasagna

Ingredients

  • 4 medium zucchini
  • 16 oz ricotta cheese
  • 1 egg
  • 3 cups mozzarella cheese shredded
  • 2 lbs ground chicken or 1-2 lbs mushroom slices
  • 1 tablespoon garlic paste
  • 24 oz tomato sauce I often use Barilla or La Victoria or my homemade recipe
  • 2 teaspoons dry oregano
  • salt and pepper

Instructions

  • Saute ground chicken in a skillet with 1/2 teaspoon oregano and garlic paste.
  • Slice zucchini with a vegetable sheet maker or thinly sliced with a knife.
  • Mix the ricotta cheese with the egg and some salt and pepper.
  • In a 13x9 pan add some sauce to the bottom then place a layer of zucchini noodles to evenly cover the dish.
  • Next spread the ricotta mixture over the zucchini, add cooked chicken, then add mozzarella cheese, add some oregano salt and pepper then sauce.
  • Layer on the zucchini, ricotta, chicken, mozzarella cheese, then sauce two more times.
  • Cover with foil and bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes or until it's heated thoroughly.
  • (you can add some grated Parmesan cheese to the top if you prefer)
  • After baking allows the lasagna to cool a bit so it sets up, it's even great baked a day ahead of serving too or made for lunches for the week, chill the dish, then cut into portions.
