Long slices of zucchini replace lasagna noodles in this fresh and simple take on the Italian classic. The zucchini slices are cut thin, salted to remove excess water, then cooked in a grill pan or skillet until nicely charred. Ricotta, mozzarella, Parmesan, fresh tomatoes, mint and basil are all tucked in between the layers of zucchini and then baked until extra warm and melty, showing us how delicious the lighter side of lasagna can be.
