1 (16 ounce) package lasagna noodles (you can try to find whole grain noodles to make it more healthy)


2 tablespoons olive oil


1 onion, chopped


1 (8 ounce) can sliced mushrooms


2 tablespoons minced garlic


1 zucchini, finely chopped


2 (28 ounce) cans crushed tomatoes


1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste


1 tablespoon dried oregano


salt to taste


1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed


1 (16 ounce) container nonfat cottage cheese


2 eggs


3 tablespoons dried basil, divided


1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (use a low fat cheese)


1 pound (16oz) shredded mozzarella cheese (use a low fat cheese





Put lasagna noodles in a large pot of lightly salted, boiling water for 10 minutes. (you can also buy oven ready noodles and then skip this step)


Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the chopped onions, mushrooms, garlic, and zucchini in the oil until soft. Stir in both cans of crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, oregano, and salt to taste. Reduce heat to low, and simmer for 15 minutes.


Meanwhile, microwave frozen spinach until cooked. Cool, and then squeeze out excess water. Drain cottage cheese. Using a mixer, blend spinach, cottage cheese, eggs, and 2 tablespoons basil until smooth. In a separate bowl, combine shredded mozzarella cheese and grated Parmesan cheese.


Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spread 1 cup sauce in the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish. Layer 1/3 of the noodles, 1/3 cottage cheese/spinach mixture, 1/3 of remaining sauce, and 1/3 cheese mixture. Repeat layers with remaining ingredients. Sprinkle top with remaining 1 tablespoon of dried basil. (I like to add some cheese to the top also)


Bake in preheated oven for 60 minutes. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.





This recipe is about 10 servings. So you will probably have some yummy healthy left overs.
The recipes are pretty much standard. Things you can do to reduce the fat are :





Use ground turkey or chicken instead of beef or pork


Use low fat cottage cheese instead of ricotta cheese


Use low fat mozzarella instead of whole fat


Use whole grain lasagna noodles-they can be found in most grocery stores now





Or try a vegetarian filling-using mushrooms, zucchini and yellow squash

This recipe is very healthy because it uses turkey instead of ground beef and it is unique because it has plantains in it.
I always get rave reviews for this lasagna recipe:

I usually just use ground beef, then cut back on the ricotta.
