Zucchiniandmushroomlasagna Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and mushrooms and saute until lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Stir in the garlic. Add the spinach and cook, stirring, until it wilts. Remove from the heat and set aside.
• Meanwhile, trim the ends of the zucchini. Using a knife, carefully slice the zucchini lengthwise into thin strips, about 1/16 inch thick. If the zucchini looks watery, lay the slices on paper towels to absorb excess moisture before using.
• Grate the mozzarella cheese and set aside.
• Cut the basil into a chiffonade by stacking the leaves on top of one another, rolling them tightly and then cutting across. Finely chop the parsley. In a medium bowl, combine the herbs, cottage cheese, 1/2 cup of the Parmesan, the eggs, salt and pepper and stir well.
• To assemble the lasagna, place a third of the mushrooms and spinach mixture over the bottom of a 13-by-9-inch baking dish. Spoon a layer of marinara on top and cover with half of the zucchini strips, carefully overlapping the edges. Spoon half of the cottage cheese mixture onto the zucchini and spread to distribute evenly. Sprinkle half the mozzarella on top of the cottage cheese mixture. Repeat the process above, layering the mushrooms and spinach, marinara, the remaining zucchini strips, cottage cheese, and mozzarella into the dish. Top with the remaining mushrooms and spinach, followed by a final layer of marinara.
• Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of the Parmesan over the top and bake until the lasagna is hot and bubbly, about 40 minutes. Allow to stand for 35 minutes before cutting into squares.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• In a medium saucepan, melt butter over medium heat; add flour and reduce heat to low, stirring to form a roux.
• Stir in milk gradually, blending so that sauce is smooth.
• Mix in onion powder, garlic, basil, parsley, oregano, and Parmesan cheese; stir and cook until mixture thickens; season to taste with salt and pepper, then keep warm over low heat, stirring occasionally, while you prepare lasagna.
• In lasagna pan or 13 x 9 inch baking pan, spray with non-stick cooking spray or wipe with a little oil and a paper towel.
• Spread 3 lasagna noodles across bottom, making sure entire bottom is covered; spread 1/3 of ricotta over noodles.
• Place a layer of mushrooms, tomatoes and zucchini over ricotta, and spoon 1/4 of the sauce over the vegetables.
• Repeat the layers 2 more times, topping the last cheese/vegetable layer with noodles (there may be a few noodles left over) and the remaining sauce.
• Cover and bake for 40 minutes; uncover, sprinkle the top with mozzarella cheese and bake 10-12 minutes more, or until cheese is just starting to turn golden and lasagna is bubbly.
• Allow to sit 5-10 minutes before cutting and serving.

Steps:

• Make bechamel: Heat milk just until small bubbles form around edges. In a saucepan over moderately low heat melt butter, add flour and whisk mixture over moderately low heat for 2 minutes. Slowly stir in milk and bring to a simmer, whisking constantly for 5 minutes. Season with nutmeg, salt and pepper.
• Make filling: In a large skillet heat 1 tablespoon each of butter and olive oil over moderate heat , add onions and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, 20 minutes or until golden brown; season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Brush zucchini with olive oil, fresh oregano, salt and pepper to taste and arrange on oiled baking sheets. Roast 20 minutes, until soft.
• In a large pot of boiling, salted water cook noodles for 3 minutes, or until soft. Drain and pat dry.
• Assemble lasagna: Reduce oven temperature to 375 degrees F. In a well-buttered 9-inch square baking dish, spread 1/4 cup bechamel sauce. Top with a lasagna noodle. Spread with another 1/4 cup bechamel. Layer on one-third each of onion mixture, zucchini slices and mozzarella. Top with 1/4 cup bechamel, 1/4 cup Parmesan and a lasagna noodle. Repeat to make 2 more layers, finishing with bechamel and Parmesan. Dot with remaining butter. Cover loosely with foil and bake 10 minutes. Uncover and bake 20 minutes more, or until top is golden and filling is bubbling. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Stir fry first 4 ingredients until barely tender.
• Add mushrooms, soy sauce, cornstarch and salt and cook only long enough to thicken.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 375°F.
• 2. In a large straight-sided skillet set over medium heat, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil. Add the onion and red pepper flakes and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is tender, about 8 minutes. Add the turkey and cook, breaking up any large pieces with the back of a spoon, until brown throughout, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the tomatoes and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer until it thickens, about 20 minutes. Stir in the oregano and salt. Let cool.
• 3. Slice the zucchini lengthwise into thin strips (about 1/8 inch thick). Put 5 or 6 zucchini slices, overlapping slightly, in the bottom of an 8 x 8-inch baking dish. Top with 1 cup of the sauce. Dot with 1/4 cup of the ricotta. Repeat the layers twice, alternating the direction of the zucchini. Top with the remaining zucchini and brush the top with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon oil. Dot with the remaining 1/4 cup ricotta and season with the black pepper. Top with the Parmesan cheese.
• 4. Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, until the lasagna is bubbling and the top is brown. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Place a rimmed baking sheet in the oven to heat up.
• Place zucchini in a bowl. Add oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and cayenne; toss to coat.
• Carefully remove the hot baking sheet and spray lightly with cooking spray. Spread out zucchini in an even layer.
• Roast in the preheated oven until browned, turning halfway, about 20 minutes. Squeeze lemon juice on top and garnish with parsley. Sprinkle sea salt on top.
