Ingredients

2 lbs. lean ground beef

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 cloves garlic, minced

8 oz. tomato sauce

1/2 small can tomato paste

1/2 cup dry red wine

2 tablespoons italian seasonings mix

1 teaspoon fennel seeds

16 oz. ricotta cheese

2 eggs, beaten slightly

3 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

salt and pepper to taste

6 oz. baby bella mushrooms, thinly sliced

2 medium zucchinis, sliced thin lengthwise

1 bag baby spinach (or as much as needed)

16 oz. mozzarella cheese, shredded

1/2 cup parmesan cheese, shredded

Directions

Preheat oven to 325.

Brown the meat in the olive oil. Drain fat from pan. Add garlic, tomato sauce, tomato paste and red wine. Mix well. Add italian seasonings and fennel seeds and simmer until thick, about 5-7 minutes.

Meanwhile, beat the eggs and ricotta together. Add parsley, salt and pepper and mix until combined.

Spray a 9 x 13 baking dish with olive oil flavored Pam. Spread 1/2 of the meat mixture on the bottom of the pan. Top with sliced zucchini. Spread zucchini with the ricotta mixture and top with spinach and mushrooms. Top with half of the cheeses. Cover with remaining meat mixture, and top with remaining cheeses. Bake at 325 until the cheese is bubbly and golden, about 40-45 minutes.

YUMMY YUM YUM YUM! That's all I can say! I made this last night for my meat and potatoes boyfriend and he absolutely loved it. This is such a fantastic and healthy replacement for traditional lasagna. I wouldn't change a thing and will definitely be making this often. Thanks for sharing. :)
