Wow this lasagna is so good you will not feel like you are missing out at all by trading in noodles for zucchini and replacing the ricotta with dry curd cottage cheese. It is definitely a time commitment but well worth it. Enjoy!
Author: Samantha B. Johnson
Serves: 6
Ingredients
  • Noodles:
  • 2 zucchini
  • ⅛ cup olive oil
  • ¼ cup salt


  • Tomato Sauce:
  • 6 cups chopped tomatoes
  • 1½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • ½ tsp red pepper
  • 4 tbsp fresh basil sliced
  • 1 tsp fresh oregano
  • 1 tsp fresh thyme
  • 4 tbsp garlic infused oil


  • Filling:
  • 1lb mild Italian sausage
  • Dry curd cottage cheese
  • 2 cups Parmesan Cheese- grated
Instructions
  1. Slice zucchini with a mandolin into noodle thickness
  2. Put zucchini a bowl with ⅛ cup olive oil and ¼ tsp salt make sure zucchini gets coated all over and set aside
  3. In a medium high heat pot add 4 tbsp garlic infused oil, tomatoes, salt and spices letting it cook until sauce volume has reduced by half (about 1hr).
  4. Preheat oven to 350 degrees
  5. In another skillet add 1 tbsp garlic infused oil and brown sausage meat and set aside
  6. When sauce is finished you can layer the lasagna using an 8 x 8 baking dish. Start with a layer of zucchini followed by ¾ cups dry curd cottage cheese and half of the meat and half of the tomato sauce. Repeat layers and then add one last layer of zucchini on top. Cover with parmesan cheese. Bake in oven for one hour.
Notes
***Note as the zucchini cooks a lot of water is released. If you have a baster then pull off water at about 30min and then again after it is finished cooking. If you don't have a baster then pour off the water or scoop it out. The broth that comes off is phenomenal so save it to make a soup. I usually put it in the freezer to use a soup broth on a rainy day.

    Typically Italian Sausage has so many additives and always has garlic and onion and sugar in its flavoring. Is there a specific Italian Sausage you use that does not contain these items? This recipe looks great!

      I just used the bulk Italian sausage at my local market. I am really sensitive to onion and garlic and it doesn’t seem to bother me. The amount used to flavor is minuscule and because it is dried and powdered its not the same as eating raw onion and garlic where you are having to deal with all the fibrous parts of the plant. Also technically white sugar is not illegal…
