Try our delicious twist on this Italian classic! We’ve snuck in zucchini and mushrooms, while still keeping that rich lasagne taste to really satisfy. It’s perfect for lunch the next day, or freeze some portions for those busy nights when you need something snappy

Ingredients

Olive oil

1 tsp

Mushrooms

300 g, chopped

Brown onion

1 medium, finely chopped

97% fat-free cottage cheese

Zucchini
