I've been wanting to try subbing zucchini slices for lasagna noodles for a while and we finally made this on Sunday night. This is a mash up from a lasagna roll recipe off Recipe Runner and a ravioli recipe I've seen circulating around Pinterest (image below). It was DELICIOUS! Here's the details:
Ingredients (filling):
- 12 ounces part skim ricotta cheese
- 3 tbs parmesan cheese
- 2 tbs fresh flat leaf parsley
- 1 tbs fresh basil
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- 1/8 tsp red pepper flakes (if you want slightly spicy)
- black pepper to taste
Other ingredients:
- 2 large zucchini sliced lengthwise
- 1 lb cooked ground beef, turkey, or sausage
- 2 cups marinara sauce
- 1/2 cup shredded part skim mozzarella cheese
- Add all ingredients for ricotta filling in a bowl and mix until blended. Store in fridge until ready.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- Spray 9 x 13 pan with olive oil spray.
- Combine sauce and cooked meat. Spread a thin layer on the bottom of the pan.
- Place zucchini slices on microwaveable safe plate for about 2 minutes. This will steam them and get them soft to use.
- Spread 4 zucchini slices out (see below) and add a spoonful of ricotta mixture to the middle. Fold up and place in pan seam sides down. Repeat until all noddles/ricotta mixture is gone.
- Pour remaining meat and sauce mixture on top of ravioli. Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese.
- Bake in the oven for 20 minutes.
- Serve with side salad & ENJOY!
