Zucchini Lasagna

OMG, this is probably my favourite lunch. It takes a bit more effort to make, but I would deffinitely recommend you to try it. ;)

Ingredients

For two people:

Sestavine

Za dve osebi:

  • bučke (2 veliki)

  • ricotta brez mleka (1/2 količine iz recepta)

  • zamrznjena špinača (250 g)

  • malo muškatnega oreška

  • česen (1 majhen strok)

  • paradižnikova omaka (iz 4 paradižnikov)

  • jajčevec (2 majhna - mlada)

  • šampinjon (250 g)

  • sol

Method

Zucchinis & AUBERGINES

Preheat the oven at 190°C. Wash and cut zucchinis in thin slices (see the photo above) and place them on a baking tray with parchment paper. Cut aubergines in halves and add them on the baking tray, open side facing downwards. Bake for about 20-25 minutes. Then take off the tray and remove the skin from aubergines. Cut them into small cubes and add them to a meatless sauce.

Meatless sauce

Saute the champignons and add them to a pot with cooked tomato sauce. Add some salt and cook together for a few minutes. During that time, mix in aubergines and let the flavours combine nicely.

Spinach

Put the spinach in the pot and let the ice melt. Then sprinkle over a bit of grated nutmeg, press the garlic, mix, and let it cook for a few minutes. You can add salt if you feel so.

Ricotta

Prepare this yummy “cheese” spread according to the instructions in the recipe.

And then comes the most fun part - building lasagna. I recommend you to follow the photos below. You start with a layer of zucchinis, then ricotta, meatless sauce, and again zucchinis (this time turn them around for 90°), ricotta, spinach, zucchinis, ricotta, and a second layer of meatless sauce on top. You can, of course, create your sequence. ;)

And voila - the best zucchini lasagna is ready to impress your taste buds. ;)

Bon Appétit!
