Veggie “Lasagne” (pasta free)

Makes 1 very generous portion!

100g butternut slices

about 200g home made marinara sauce (tomato, onion, veggie stock, Italian Herbs)

125g fat free cottage cheese mixed with parsley and a little bit of crushed garlic (if preferred)

50g zucchini ribbons

Layer all the ingredients in an ovenproof dish.  The order I did it:  first butternut, then marinara sauce, then cottage cheese mixture, zucchini ribbons, topped with more marinara sauce, seasoned with Italian Herb seasoning.

Bake at 160C for 40 min – test if butternut is soft.

Serve with garlic toast – low calorie bread spread with extra light margarine and a bit of crushed garlic and parsley.  Toast in the oven, under the grill until toast is crispy and butter mix melted.
