Directions

Roast the zucchini noodles. This can be done in advance, or just before you prepare the lasagna.

  1. Preheat oven to 450.
  2. Slice the zucchini into 1/4″ thick “noodles.”
  3. Place the strips on baking sheets lined with parchment paper. Drizzle with olive oil and rub in with your fingers, ensuring that both sides are lightly coated.
  4. Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of salt and roast 10-12 minutes just until tender.
  5. Remove pans from oven and set aside.

  1. Reduce oven to 375.
