Tuscan Zucchini Lasagna
Ellbee’s Garlic Kitchen Box

Tuscan Zucchini Lasagna

All the bubbling, saucy satisfaction of lasagna with tender ribbons of zucchini standing in for noodles. Tuscan garlic, a tomato-basil balsamic finish and a hearty sausage filling make it feel generous—not like a compromise dressed up as dinner.

Ingredients
  

Method
 

  1. Heat oven to 375°F. Salt zucchini ribbons lightly and set in a colander for 15 minutes, then pat dry. This prevents a watery lasagna.
  2. Heat Ellbee's Garlic Olive Oil in a skillet. Brown sausage, stir in Ellbee's Tuscan Gourmet Garlic, then add marinara and Ellbee's Tomato Basil Balsamic Vinegar. Simmer 8 minutes.
  3. Mix cottage cheese, 1 1/2 cups mozzarella, Parmesan, egg, salt and pepper. In a 9-by-13-inch baking dish, layer zucchini, cheese mixture and sausage sauce twice, ending with sauce and remaining mozzarella.
  4. Bake until bubbling and browned, 35 to 40 minutes. Rest 15 minutes before cutting so the layers settle, then finish with basil.

Notes

Time: 75 min
Kitchen tip: A mandoline makes quick, even zucchini ribbons; use the guard and keep the slices just thick enough to hold their shape.
