Easy Homemade Zucchini Lasagna Recipe
Easy Homemade Zucchini Lasagna Recipe – Citizens of Casseroleville, bow in the presence of the king of all baked dishes! This recipe gets two thumbs-up not only for being gluten-free, but also for allowing you to keep your blood sugar in check. By replacing lasagna noodles with thin layers of sliced zucchini, the carbs stay low, but the flavor is still full and zesty. We suggest using a mandoline for even slices and quick prep. Just be careful—those things are sharp!
SERVING: 8
Preparation time              Cook time                    Ready in
30 Minutes                           1 Hour                  1 Hour 30 Minutes

Ingredients

·         2 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
·         1 small onion, finely chopped
·         1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
·         1 pound ground turkey
·         1 (28-ounce) can diced tomatoes
·         3 tablespoons chopped fresh oregano
·         2 teaspoons salt
·         2 medium zucchini
·         1 cup part-skim ricotta cheese
·         1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
·         1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese (2 ounces)

Directions

    1. Preheat the oven to 375°F.
    2. In a large straight-sided skillet set over medium heat, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil. Add the onion and red pepper flakes and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is tender, about 8 minutes. Add the turkey and cook, breaking up any large pieces with the back of a spoon, until brown throughout, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the tomatoes and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer until it thickens, about 20 minutes. Stir in the oregano and salt. Let cool.
    3. Slice the zucchini lengthwise into thin strips (about 1/8 inch thick). Put 5 or 6 zucchini slices, overlapping slightly, in the bottom of an 8 x 8-inch baking dish. Top with 1 cup of the sauce. Dot with 1/4 cup of the ricotta. Repeat the layers twice, alternating the direction of the zucchini. Top with the remaining zucchini and brush the top with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon oil. Dot with the remaining 1/4 cup ricotta and season with the black pepper. Top with the Parmesan cheese.
    4. Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, until the lasagna is bubbling and the top is brown. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.

Tip

Freezes well!
For best results, prepare the casserole through step 4. Wrap in foil and freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw the casserole overnight in the refrigerator before baking as stated in the recipe. Note that casseroles that have not been completely thawed may take 15 to 30 minutes longer, so be sure to check for bubbling edges and a hot center.

Cars Specifications Centre  Cars Specification Centre | Like all other vehicles, cars come in all shapes and sizes, each of which is made for people with different needs. Some small "city" cars carry only two to four people, and do not have a lot of room for luggage. Other types are able to carry many passengers or heavy loads. For example, station wagons or estate cars carry from 5 to 9 people, or fewer people with lots of luggage. There are many different sizes of vans, such as minivans, which are made for families, and even small pickup trucks, which are car-like vehicles made for carrying medium-sized loads; for example, goods for delivery or plumber's and builder's tools and materials. Heavy lorries are used to carry deliveries and heavy loads. In order for a car to work, it must have a power source, where the car gets the energy it needs to turn the wheels.
