Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 45 minutes
Total Time: 60 minutes

Ingredients:

9 lasagna noodles
1 tsp olive oil
2 cloves garlic, chopped fine
1 medium onion, chopped (3/4 cup)
1 25 oz. jar prepared tomato basil marinara sauce
1 carton low-fat cottage cheese (1 1/2 lb.)
1 large egg,
1 pound fresh mushrooms, sliced (2 cups)
1 lb. zucchini, thinly sliced (2 1/2cups)
6 oz. shredded, part-skim mozzarella cheese

Preparation:

1. Cook the lasagna noodles according to package directions. Drain, and set aside.

2. Preheat the oven to 350°F.

3. In a heavy skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and onion, and cook 4 minutes, or until the onion is soft. Add the sauce, cottage cheese, egg, and mushroom. Reduce heat, and simmer for 5 minutes.

4. Spray a 9x13 inch baking pan with non-stick cooking spray. Place 3 lasagna noodles on the bottom of the pan. Next, layer 1/3 of the sauce mix, 1/3 of the zucchini, and then 1/3 of the cheese on top. Repeat this step, adding two more layers on top of the first, using the remaining noodles, sauce, zucchini, and cheese.

5. Cover with tin foil, and bake of 350°F for 45 minutes.

SO good and the meat-and-potatoes guys who ate it had to admit that they didn't miss the meat. Mine actually came out a few calories less (215), even though I used about 9 oz of mozzarella cheese, I think because I used multi-grain lasagna noodles instead of regular.

I did add it to the database as "Casey's Garden Lasagna" with the above info. I've checked and at the time of this posting, it isn't in the database yet, but it will be. There is a delay of a day or so it seems.

Enjoy!
