Zucchini Noodle Lasagna

This recipe works with meat or mushroom crumble for a vegan version.

I originally posted this recipe in 2019, when I was experimenting with paleo recipes. Yes, about ten years ago I kicked gluten out of my life. Although I had been a pastry chef for a long time, eating gluten and serving it to others became a conflict for me. So I replaced noodles in my lasagna recipe with zucchini slices. Recently I revamped this recipe, and thought perhaps I could replace the meat with a combination of minced mushrooms and vegetables, called Mushroom Crumble from Big Mountain Foods. It’s very versatile as a ground meat replacement without being ultra-processed. (I’m not a fan of plant- based meat replacements). So this is a perfect Lenten option too.

It's rich, savory, creamy and delicious, and my family thought so too, and they can sometimes be my worst critics!

I sliced small zucchinis (because they have less seeds and more flesh) vertically on a mandolin to keep them uniform and to a similar thickness of a lasagna noodle, The layering process is the same. Each component of the recipe takes a little time, but the results are well worth it. If I am in production mode (like the old days in the kitchen) I would make 2 and freeze one. Why go through it twice?
