Transport your taste buds to Italy with a veggie-filled, cheesy lasagna - a delicious casserole dish.
Ingredients:
  • 8 uncooked whole wheat lasagna noodles
  • 3 cups sliced cremini mushrooms
  • 2 small zucchini, unpeeled, halved lengthwise and sliced
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 cup part-skim ricotta cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup fresh basil leaves, chopped
  • 1 1/2 cups tomato pasta sauce (from 24-oz jar)
Instructions:
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and generously coat a 13x9-inch glass baking dish with cooking spray. Follow package instructions to cook the noodles. Once cooked, drain, rinse with cold water to cool, and lay the noodles flat.
  • Prepare a 10-inch skillet by spraying it with cooking spray and heating it over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and zucchini to the skillet, sprinkle with pepper, and cook for 5 to 8 minutes, stirring frequently until the vegetables are very tender. Remove from heat, drain, and return to the skillet. Mix in ricotta cheese, mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, and basil until well blended.
  • Spread 1/2 cup of pasta sauce in a baking dish. Spoon 1/3 cup of vegetable mixture onto each cooked noodle, spreading it to the ends. Roll up each noodle from the short end to form a wheel and place them seam-side down in the baking dish. Finally, pour the remaining 1 cup of sauce evenly over the tops of the wheels.
  • Bake uncovered for 30 minutes or until the sauce is bubbling. Serve warm and spoon the sauce from the baking dish over each wheel before serving.
