👨‍🍳 Instructions

Slice the zucchini lengthwise into 1/4-inch slices.

Mix the flour with the salt and pepper (or alternate no salt seasoning) and dip both sides of zucchini slices into the mixture.

In a large nonstick skillet, heat the oil and fry the zucchini slices, half at a time, over medium heat until they are golden, turning them once. Remove the zucchini to a platter covered with a paper towel.

In a medium bowl, combine the Ricotta, egg white and whole egg, oregano and 3 tablespoons of the Parmesan.

In the bottom of a baking pan, approximately 12 x 8 x 2-inches, spread 1 cup of the spaghetti sauce, top with half the zucchini slices, then half the Ricotta mixture and half the Mozzarella.

Repeat the layers.

Sprinkle lasagna with the remaining Parmesan.

Bake the lasagna in a preheated 350° oven for 45 minutes or until lasagna is bubbly.
