Noodleless Lasagna

 

  • 2 cups fresh spinach
  • 2 cups sliced mushrooms
  • 1 Yellow Squash
  • 1 medium Zucchini
  • 1 medium Eggplant
  • Part-skim Mozzarella slices
  • Part skim Ricotta (1/2 container)
  • 3 cups Tomato sauce (preferably homemade)
  • Grated Parmesan to top

Slice squash, zucchini and eggplant THIN (these will be your “noodles”) with a mandolin

  1. In crock pot, pour a bit of sauce on the bottom, then layer the eggplant, squash and zucchini (as noodles). Smear a third of the container of ricotta on top (I usually do this in thirds)
  2. Then pile on a third of the spinach and mushrooms. Layer some sliced cheese on top (I only use a bit as I feel this gets SUPER cheesy, but the amount is up to you).
  3. Pile on some more sauce.
  4. Layer the rest of the ingredients in the same manner.
  5. Cook in crockpot for about 8 hours on LOW so the veggies become the texture of noodles.
