Stunning job, Autumn!❤
Thank you! 😊
Looks amazing! Worth the extra time!
I had so many zucchini from my garden I started making zucchini lasagna…. You can also make zucchini boats, cut them in half, scoop them out, stuff them with marinara and ground beef, top with cheese and bake!
Yes! Love zucchini boats! Great recommendation
Ground venison or lamb is excellent for real lasagna so sure it would be great for this too. I’ll try this recipe soon
Where would you find ground lamb? Whole Foods?
Lamb is higher in saturated fat, no?
I’m not in CA so ground lamb is very expensive but in one grocery store where I live in upstate NY and Restaurant Depot. I don’t have Costco nor Whole Foods by me but I’d be surprised if they don’t have it
Don’t listen to the bullsh****t from USDA of saturated fats. Lamb has very Good fat in it no higher in saturated fat really to beef
@Mary Marseglia Thank you❣
Thank you for sharing Autumn! I’m definitely going to make this for my family! ❤
Enjoy!❤️
This recipe is one of my FAVORITES!!
yes!!
This looks so good! I make something similar but use eggplant. I bake the eggplant first In The oven to dry it out a little bc eggplant has so much water in it. Then layer it with beef and instead of the ricotta mix I use mozzarella cheese. It’s like a cross between a eggplant lasagna and eggplant parm.
oh yum! That sounds great too!
I make the same with feta cheese ❤
Adding the beans to the sauce is such a genius way to add more protein!
I love doing lasagna in advance, then freezing it. It’s great for crazy busy times when I have zero time for prepping. The sauce looks amazing! Definitely doing it tomorrow night!
So true! Excited for you to try this recipe out!❤️
I actually made this a few days ago, but since I can’t have tomatoes, I modified a bechamel sauce recipe to make it thicker and added Italian herbs and garlic. So yummy!
I did make a mistake with the zucchini, though. I used a gigantic one and sliced it too thick. I also should have peeled it. The skin gets hard on the really big ones.
I ended up cooking it longer and ate it with the zucchini ‘a la dente’.
It’s a great meal prep meal for one or two people to have a few days, too.
Absolutely, I love making a big batch of this and having it for a few days also.
I also baked the zucchini b/f layering to get some of water out. I also use egg crepes. You can get at some markets. My family loves this lasagna
Egg crepes are a great idea!
Yum❣ I’m definitely going to try this recipe. Thanks Autumn. 😊
You are so welcome!
This looks AMAZING. I love your cooking videos. Did you ever thinking of doing a course and selling it online. I would be first in the queue to purchase. As a non cook these are my favourite recipes. I will make this at the weekend. Thank you
Thank you so much! I don’t have a course but I do have various cookbooks and programs with tons of recipes 🙂 You can find them here: https://www.autumnellenutrition.com/shop
You are such a foodie 😆
I’m all for trying new recipes but my lasagne nerve is making my eye twitch haha
Interesting seeing neither the sauce base or béchamel cheese not being cooked at all until it’s in the oven.
Not to mention the red wine 🍷
You know, 1 for the pot, 2 for the chef 😁
The basil! Poor Basil lol
Don’t knock it til you’ve tried it! By far one of my favorite meals 😋
That looks fantastic! Another lasagna “noodle” we love is Heart of Palm “pasta.” It comes in lasagna sheets and tastes really delicious. It would work perfectly in this recipe. Thanks so much for sharing this.
I am not gluten intolerant, yet I prefer zucchini pasta and cauliflower rice over the usual ones. Autumn, may I ask you which parts of ground beef do you opt for? Lately, the doctors suggested I add more beef to my nutrition, and I haven’t been into red meat for quite some time. Which parts are on the 90/10 or 93/7 categories? Thanks for the recipe.
This would work really well even for low carb diets, too. No pasta would keep that carb count from getting so high.
Omg my mouth is literally watering!! I’m making this tomorrow night ❤❤❤
Looks amazing 🤩
Oh, this looks SO tasty!!! I’ll be trying it this weekend!! Thank you, Autumn!! 🙂 I’m off for my hour long walk…☺
