Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large skillet, heat 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced zucchini and season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Sauté for about 8-10 minutes, until tender and slightly golden brown.
- Using the same skillet, add a bit more olive oil if needed and toss in the fresh spinach. Stir continuously for about 3-5 minutes, until wilted. Drain excess moisture.
- In a mixing bowl, combine ricotta, Parmesan, egg, garlic, herbs, red pepper, and spinach. Mix until creamy.
- Grease a 13 x 9-inch casserole dish with olive oil and pour a thin layer of marinara sauce.
- Layer gluten-free lasagna noodles over the marinara, then add sautéed zucchini, half of the cheese mixture, and mozzarella.
- Repeat the layering: another set of noodles, remaining zucchini, half cheese mixture, and more mozzarella. Finish with a final layer of noodles, remaining marinara, and mozzarella.
- Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove foil in the last 10 minutes to brown the top.
- Let the lasagna cool for about 15 minutes before serving.

Notes
For best texture, avoid freezing layers with zucchini. Fresh ingredients yield better flavor.
