The Best Way to Make Zucchini Lasagna
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 18 сен 2024
- Today, we're making zucchini lasagna, a recipe I've made for years with my summer zucchini! It has all the flavors we know and love of lasagna, but it uses zucchini "noodles" instead of lasagne or pasta. This recipe has been perfected from years of making it over and over. So, I'm sharing my tips and tricks for making the best zucchini lasagna out there and one that doesn't have watery results. Because who wants that? ;) I hope you enjoy it! You'll want to pair this dish with protein such as meatballs or chicken parmesan or add a meat sauce. Cheers!

Lost count of how many times I called the zucchini “eggplant” by accident while we filmed this. Close call lol ;) always a pleasure sharing these recipes with you guys each week. Thanks so much for the support!
Less than 45 slices...lol
Thank you, I would also put in chopped organic garlic.
@@Asimplepalate was thinking of something else for a summer dish. A nice pasta with homemade pesto sauce accompanied by one of those great Mediterranean type salad you make.
Hi Bethany
This looks like a really good courgette (Zucchini) recipe, i love the tip re not only salting the courgette but baking it also to get rid of the extra moisture.
My mother in Law is back later this week after her holiday away, so i will make this for her.
She upset the lady in the hotel she was staying in you know, she said "The room is damp i will have rheumatism in the morning, the hotel owner said 'No you wont' 'You will have bacon and eggs like every one else'
Chris (In UK)
I hope your mother-in-law enjoys this courgette recipe, Chris! always laughing with your stories. We always look forward to them!😂
@@Asimplepalate Hi Bethany
Well as promised we tried the Zucchini Lasagna tonight and i made your Sweetcorn salad again to go with it, all i can say is empty plates all-round and a saved portion for my daughter to take to work tomorrow.
As always the mother-in-law was here, but she absolutely loved it, i tell you, its unheard of, she moans more that an old wooden bridge.
Actually she was talking about funeral plans for the future to my wife, she said what do you think Shall she order burial, embalming or cremation, i said best not take any chances get all three.
Chris.
@@geordiejones2 awww Chris, I'm so glad you guys got to try this!! It's certainly a different recipe, but I'm thrilled you all loved it. And thrilled your mother in law loved it, always a win and I'm honored to hear it. But always compliments to the chef! Also, are you sure you're not a full-time comedian😂
You really make some great recipes, Bethany. Thanks so much!
I really appreciate it, John 💛
I just love your recipes thank you so much for sharing them with us, This looks amazing and I will be trying this recipe because I love Zucchini’s
I appreciate it so much, really happy you're enjoying everything. Hope you get to try this!
You are so good at these videos! (Also your kitchen is so clean. I've seen videos where it is such a mess you wouldn't want to eat anything, lol ) Your pace and explanation is perfect.
I really appreciate it, Brian! lol I know exactly what you mean. I always keep things clean and that’s especially when I cook! thank you for the support:)
Thank you so much for sharing your Cooking talent ❤
Going to try it !!!
Bethany! I’ve never had a zucchini lasagna, but the end results looked sooo tasty, I went from not hungry to being very hungry🤣. Drew always looks so anxious to try the finished dish. Again, love the channel, keep up the great work! I always look forward to new videos!❤️
I really appreciate it! And yes, we're both typically starving at the end of the video, and trying not to eat the whole dish😂 So glad you're enjoying the videos and appreciate your support every week💛
Loving your videos, Bethany! Your sheet trays look just like mine: well used! Always reassuring ❤
Thank you, George! hahah yes mine are very used, which is always a good sign right? :)
Thank you so much for another amazing recipe ... Perfect summer dish
Thank you for watching!
BTW those chicken meatballs are a hit ! made more and shared them with 4 neighbors.. All love them ~ next week Zuc's with ? ~Thank you ~
awww I'm thrilled to hear it! So glad your neighbors are enjoying them too💛
This looks so good and healthy! I just love how you make it look so easy 🎉 and the pink shirt looks great on you! ❤
awww shucks, thank you! I really appreciate it. lol glad it looks easy too 😉
LOVE YOU!!
Making this tonight! 💜
I hope you enjoy it! 💛
Great work. I make it exaclty the same, but i add ground turkey or beef to my sauce finely chopped for texture, thickening. Keep up the great recipes. I made your Chick Parm meatballs last week. Awesome recipe.
Love to hear it! for a complete meal it definitely needs the protein so that’s a great idea. And so glad you enjoyed the meatballs, I’m thrilled to hear it💛
That looks spectacular! Zucchinis are on this weekend's shopping list!
By the way, that block of Reggiano looks amazing! I can smell the aroma from here in the land down under ❤
Glad to hear zucchinis made the list! This is a great recipe that makes them shine. And the Reggiano always helps make that possible ;) Appreciate the support every week!
@@Asimplepalate Reggiano makes everything better! Even Kellog's corn flakes taste better with a sprinkling of reggiano 😅
@@barrakouta 😆
I would love to see your chicken cordon blue recipe!
Will have to work on that one!
Looks delicious and will have to make this dish
Thank you so much, I hope you do get to try it!
Drew makes me laugh. Jeremy would never eat anything on camera for me. 😂
lol he's warmed up to it after a few tries, but I'm thankful when he wants to do it
Bethany, thank you for another great recipe. But, can I share something with you? I think black is your color! You look much better in the black blouse than the pink one!!😀 Hope that makes you smile again😀
haha, thanks ed! I like the pink :) I'm always in black lol
I have cut myself as well. I always use my guard now 👍😂 I am loving your site.
😆yes, I learned my lesson the hard way. Those things are no joke! And thank you so much💛
This is a great beat the heat summer dish. So glad I put off grocery shopping until tomorrow. An easy protein source to add is sauteed chop meat mixed into the sauce. This dish would pair well with a nice bowl of gazpacho or another summer soup. If only we had a good recipe. Hint, hint :-)
Totally! I've made this every summer for years. And yes, you can add any chop meat! haha, I haven't forgotten about the gazpacho ;)
@@Anyonesguess421 we were on Long Island a few weeks ago, it was actually so much nicer and less hot than Pennsylvania! And yes, I always place on the middle rack. But I'll try to mention that, and any notes on freezing recipes is on the recipe on our website. But I'll do my best to let people know what recipes they can freeze!
@@Asimplepalate You picked great summer weather to visit L.I. sDnce then, humidity is horrendous. Runs through August along with our A/Cs & dehumidifiers! Will assume unless you say otherwise that recipes go on mid rack.. If you guys ever on Long Island in the Fall, check out the Sound road .route. It's miles of farms, orchards, antiquing barns, arts & crafts, etc. That welcome to public for shopping. It's like one long Farmers market! It runs through many old world, quaint towns with historical history, eateries, pubs and good people. PA such a beautiful state. Thanks to a bunch of really brave dudes, It's the birthplace of the most beautiful experiment on the planet!
you got me with your tomato sauce and your meatballs and now this lasagna but what is driving me crazy is your Boska cheese grater !! I am so close to that dangerous buy it now thingie , do I need it , nope but wow I want it !
🤣 hahaha I get it. I get a lot of comments about that grater. I will say as wonderful as it is, a regular box grater and parchment paper below it works just as good 😅
@@Asimplepalate oh I have more cheese graters than I can count but the coolness of that Boska is intoxicating lol
Yes
Those slicers So dangerous.
I threw mine out.
You look gorgeous today.
Thank you so much! 💛 yes they can be pretty dangerous. I don’t blame you for
Tossing it haha.
@@Asimplepalate I scalped a good chunk of my fingertip and im a guitar player.Took months to heal.Enjoy the rest of your summer.Keep the good recipes coming.
Just ask; Any recipes for a lunch or dinner frittata? Accompanied by a salad, they make a nice summer meal. I know they're heart attacks on plates, but can't think of a better way to go!
I do have an egg bake, not so much of a frittata but it's close! I'll be sharing that soon!
If you lined the baking trays with paper towels instead of parchment paper wouldn't that absorb more of the liquid?
yes, you can do that! I only have them on parchment because they are baked after sweating and it's easier not to transfer them around but you can totally do that before baking them.
