Categories     Dinner

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 to 3 eggplants (about 1 ½ pounds), (sliced lengthwise into ½-inch thick slices (about 12 slices))
Extra virgin olive oil
Kosher salt
1 large egg
1 15-oz tub part-skim ricotta cheese
1 ½ cup park-skim mozzarella cheese (divided)
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese (divided)
3 garlic cloves (minced)
1 teaspoon dried oregano
10 oz frozen spinach, (thawed and fully dried (wring out all the water))
1 cup packed chopped fresh parsley
½ cup packed chopped fresh basil (⅔ ounce)
Black pepper to your liking
2 cups prepared pasta sauce of choice

Steps:

  • Season the eggplant slices on both sides with kosher salt and set aside for 20 to 30 minutes (if you don't have the time, this step can be optional).
  • Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and position a rack in the middle.
  • Wipe the eggplant slices very well with a paper towel (you want to dry it well and remove any excess salt), then arrange on lightly oiled baking sheet (or two if needed). Brush the top of the eggplant with extra virgin olive oil. Roast in the heated oven until the eggplant softens and becomes pliable (about 15 to 20 minutes or so).
  • While the eggplant is roasting, prepare the ricotta filling. In a mixing bowl, beat the egg. Add the ricotta, 1 cup mozzarella, ¼ Parmesan, garlic, oregano, spinach and chopped herbs. Add a small pinch of kosher salt and black pepper to your liking. Mix well to combine.
  • Remove the eggplant from the oven. Lower the heat to 375 degrees F.
  • Prepare a 9 x 13-inch baking dish. Pour a bit of the pasta sauce (about ½ cup or so) and spread it out into one layer. Lay a few eggplant slices (anywhere from 4 to 6 and it's fine if they overlap a bit). Spread 1/2 of the ricotta filling, then spread a thin layer of the sauce. Repeat the process in the same pattern. Spread the final layer of sauce and follow with the remaining ½ cup mozzarella cheese and ¼ cup of Parmesan.
  • Cover the dish tightly with foil. Bake in the heated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, then carefully uncover and return to the oven. Bake for another 10 to 20 minutes or until the cheese has melted and the edges of the lasagna turn a nice golden brown.
  • Let the lasagna rest for 10 minutes before cutting and serving.

ZUCCHINI EGGPLANT (AUBERGINE) LOW-CARB LASAGNA



Zucchini Eggplant (Aubergine) Low-Carb Lasagna image

A friend brought this to a pot-luck. No noodles, so lower carb. All the veggies make this recipe pretty healthy, and you can use whatever types of dairy you prefer--whole fat, low fat, it always seems to come out great. I'm going to try a version with soft tofu instead of ricotta.

Time 1h45m

Yield 1 9X13 pan, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 medium zucchini
1 medium eggplant
1 large onion, chopped
3 garlic cloves, chopped
6 sweet Italian turkey sausage links, about 1 1/4 lbs, chopped (optional)
1 red bell pepper, chopped
1 (8 ounce) package sliced mushrooms
1 (10 ounce) package frozen spinach, thawed
28 ounces pasta sauce, any style
1 (15 ounce) container fat-free ricotta cheese
4 ounces low fat cottage cheese
2 scallions, chopped
2 eggs
3 cups low fat mozzarella
1/2 cup parmesan cheese, freshly grated
1 dash ground nutmeg
salt
pepper
olive oil flavored cooking spray
3 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • Peel eggplant. Slice eggplant and zucchini lengthwise into thin strips (about 1/4 inch). Place on baking sheet, spray with olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper. Broil these, turning and re-spraying with oil once, until lightly browned on both sides. These are your "noodles". It's time-consuming, but it's SO worth it!
  • In a large heavy-bottomed pot, heat olive oil. Saute onion and garlic until just beginning to brown. Add chopped turkey sausage, if using. Cook about 10 minutes. Add red pepper and mushrooms, stirring gently. Cook 5 minutes. Add jarred pasta sauce and thawed spinach (squeeze out most of the liquid). Simmer about 10 more minutes.
  • Combine ricotta, cottage cheese, eggs, scallions and nutmeg. Set aside.
  • Preheat oven to 375°F.
  • Layer 1/3 of sauce in 9x13 baking dish. Layer 1/2 eggplant and zucchini slices. Top with 1/2 ricotta mixture, 1/3 mozzarella, and 1/3 parmesan.
  • Repeat.
  • Top with final 1/3 sauce, then mozzarella and parmesan. Cover with foil and bake one hour. Remove foil for last 5-10 minutes.

  • With a mandoline or very sharp knife, slice the eggplant and zucchini length-wise into long, thin (1/4-inch) sections so that they resemble lasagna noodles. Spread the vegetable slices out onto a kitchen towel or layers of paper towels and sprinkle them lightly with kosher salt. Let stand for 15 minutes to allow some of the excess liquid to drain off. Pat dry. Prepare the zucchini and eggplant according to one of the three methods below:
  • GRILL METHOD: Preheat an outdoor grill or indoor grill pan to medium. Lightly coat the grill with canola oil, then grill the eggplant and zucchini strips until cooked and lightly brown, about 2 to 3 minutes per side.
  • BROIL METHOD: Place the top oven rack about 5 inches from the upper heat element. Set the oven to broil at 500 degrees F. Arrange the zucchini and eggplant slices in a single layer on a baking sheet. (Do not line the baking sheet pans with wax paper or parchment, as they will burn.) Lightly brush the slices with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Flip over the slices and repeat for the other side. Broil for 5-8 minutes, or until lightly brown, working in multiple batches as needed. Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly. Place the slices on paper towels to remove excess moisture.
  • NEITHER: Move ahead with the recipe—skip grilling or broiling the zucchini completely. The lasagna will have a lot of excess liquid around the veggie slices in the slow cooker (even after salting them in step 1), but if this doesn't bother you, you can scoop out the noodles and discard it.
