Layered Zucchini Lasagna(No Noodles!)

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 350u00b0F.

2. 2

   Bring water to a boil in a large saucepan. Add zucchini; cook 3 minutes or until crisp-tender. Drain and cool. Or you may grill or saute the zucchini if you wish.

3. 3

   Place the ground beef(or turkey or crumbles) and garlic in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook until browned, stirring to break up meat. Stir in the spaghetti sauce, salt, basil, and oregano; cook for 1 minute. Remove from heat.

4. 4

   Combine the cottage cheese, parsley, and eggs in a medium bowl.

5. 5

   Arrange zucchini slices in a shallow 3-quart casserole coated with cooking spray. Sprinkle the zucchini with half of the breadcrumbs. Spread half of cottage cheese mixture over breadcrumbs; cover with half of the meat mixture and 1 cup mozzarella. Repeat the layers with the remaining breadcrumbs, cottage cheese mixture, and meat mixture; reserve the remaining mozzarella. Bake at 350u00b0F for 40 minutes.

6. 6

   Sprinkle with remaining mozzarella, and bake an additional 5 minutes or until cheese melts.
