Description

I have made this lasagna-like zucchini casserole frequently over the years and shared the recipe with many people. It's a little bit lighter than other layered casseroles, making it an amazing choice for anyone trying to eat right.

Ingredient:

  • 2 pounds zucchini
  • 1 carton (15 ounces) reduced-fat ricotta cheese
  • 1/2 cup egg substitute
  • 1/2 cup dry bread crumbs, divided
  • 5 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese, divided
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 jar (28 ounces) meatless pasta sauce
  • 1-1/2 cups shredded reduced-fat mozzarella cheese
  • Fresh basil leaves, optional
