Sounds like a great combination.


Sounds great!


Mmmmm! I love zucchini and am always looking for new recipes using it. This sounds great!


This recipe is simply perfect! Surprised it hasn't been rated yet! Definitely a 5! I love zucchini, saving this one!


We have made this with and without the meat and we love it (we are up to our eyeballs in zucchini right now!) - it was also a big hit at the last BBQ - this is a great way for lasagna lovers looking to cut carbs! FIVE FORKS!

You can also use your families favorite lasagna sauce recipe instead of the marinara and tomatoes. We have cooked it both ways and it is great no matter what.
