    My sister made zucchini lasagna last night with the zucchini as the lasagna noodles. It is to die for. :)

    I've seen this recipe around Pinterest and had been dying to try it,and it turned out great! A 150g portion of pasta might have 300-400 plus calories where as 150g of zuchinni only has 24! It's also really good at taking on and absorbing all the other flavors!

    Basic zuchinni 'pasta' recipe!
    150g zuchinni (I found this was enought for a medium bowl/average portion)
    1 tbsp oil ( I used spray oil to reduce calories,adjust accordingly)
    Any flavorings garlic/ginger/salt etc... (I used ginger puree,yum!)

    1.Heat oil in a large pan over a medium heat.Add any flavorings.garlic to the pan and then the zuchinni,stir fry until golden and crispy (about 3 minutes)
    2.Remove from heat and add topping of your choosing (marinara sauce/chicken etc...)
    I made a kind of carbonara by adding in some mushrooms,ham and stirred in some fage 0% which made it really creamy!!
    I can't rave about this enough! I'm a pasta fiend and after eating a bowl of this I feel really full :) definitely worth a try!

    I've heard of lasagna made with eggplant (I think in place of a meat or cheese layer). This recipe sounds good!

    Made this last night (thx for the idea) and it was awesome. I had some fresh corn on the cob that I made for the kids so I removed the kernals and added to the pasta.
