Ingredients

  • Cooking spray
  • 2½ tablespoons extra virgin olive oil divided
  • 1 small onion finely chopped
  • ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 4 portobello mushrooms chopped
  • 1 28-ounce can diced tomatoes (about 3 cups)
  • 3 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 2 medium zucchini sliced, lengthwise, into ⅛-inch thick “lasagna” style noodles
  • 2 cups part-skim ricotta cheese divided
  • ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F. Grease a 9- x 13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  • Heat a large sauté pan over medium heat.
  • Add 2 tablespoons oil, onions, and red pepper flakes and cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are tender, about 8 minutes.
  • Add remaining half tablespoon oil and mushrooms and cook, until brown, about 4 minutes.
  • Add tomatoes and bring mixture to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and simmer, uncovered until it thickened, about 20 minutes.
  • Stir in basil and salt. Let cool.
  • Put a third of zucchini noodles on the bottom of the prepared dish, overlapping slightly. Top with half sauce and half ricotta. Repeat layers.
  • Top with last third zucchini. Sprinkle black pepper, parmesan, and mozzarella.
  • Bake at 375°F for 50 to 60 minutes or until golden brown.
