Cheesy Zucchini Lasagna image

This recipe is the easiest lasagna I've ever made, especially since you do not boil the noodles. It's meatless, yet my family (carnivores included) enjoys it. This is based on a recipe I found in the Betty Crocker Low Fat Low Cholesterol cookbook. VARIATIONS: For those who aren't watching their weight, feel free to use the full-fat versions of the cheeses. Also, you may use regular lasagne noodles instead of whole wheat.

This lasagna was a bit too cheesy for my taste. I think I would have liked it better if I had used less cheese.

I'm not a big fan of zucchini, but I was pleasantly surprised by this lasagna. The zucchini noodles were very mild and they didn't overpower the other flavors in the dish.

I was really excited to try this recipe, but I was disappointed. The zucchini noodles were mushy and the sauce was bland. I think I'll stick to my old lasagna recipe.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my lasagna turned out dry. I think I might have overcooked it. Next time I'll be sure to keep a closer eye on it.

This lasagna was a bit bland for my taste. I think I would have liked it better if I had added more spices to the sauce.
