9 uncooked lasagna noodles
1 lb extra-lean (at least 90%) ground beef
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 jar (25.5 oz) Muir Glen™ organic Italian herb pasta sauce
1/8 teaspoon ground red pepper (cayenne)
1 1/2 teaspoons dried basil leaves
1 egg
1 container (15 oz) reduced-fat ricotta cheese
2 cups shredded reduced-fat mozzarella cheese (8 oz)
1/3 cup shredded Parmesan cheese

Spread about 1/2 cup sauce mixture over bottom of baking dish. Top with 3 noodles, 1 1/2 cups of the sauce mixture, half of the ricotta mixture and 3/4 cup of the mozzarella cheese. Repeat layers once. Top with remaining noodles, sauce and mozzarella cheese; sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Spray 15-inch piece of foil with cooking spray. Cover lasagna with foil.

This lasagna was a bit too cheesy for my taste. I would reduce the amount of cheese next time. Otherwise, it was a good recipe.

This lasagna was a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra seasoning to the filling and it was much better. Overall, it was a good recipe but I would make some changes next time.

I was skeptical about this recipe because I'm not a fan of zucchini noodles. However, I was pleasantly surprised! The zucchini noodles were a great substitute for traditional lasagna noodles and the overall dish was delicious.

I'm not a big fan of lasagna, but this recipe was really good. The zucchini noodles made it a lot lighter and healthier than traditional lasagna. I would definitely make this again.
