Whole wheat noodles and zucchini pump up nutrition in this delicious, family-friendly dinner. Topped with dollops of ricotta cheese, it has an extra touch of decadence. No one will believe this one’s lighter. —Lorie Miner, Kamas, Utah

We made this last night... it was great!! My husband and I really enjoyed it. We has spinach on hand so we added that in the meal. It was a hit... we look forward to making this again!

Sorry to have to disagree w/ everybody. This recipe was awful. I ended up throwing everything out. I think the problem was the "uncooked" noodles. If I were to make this ever again, I would cook my noodles. The noodles never cooked properly, tasting gummy. Maybe it was the brand of noodles. I don't know. Usually I have great success with the Taste of Home recipes. This one, not quite.

This is a great recipe. My husband always gets nervous when he asks what's for supper and I say I'm trying something new. He really liked this one. Very easy and tasty. The BEST part is that with this "lasagna", I don't have to eat it all week. The leftovers (not many) were even better. Thanks for sharing.

This was VERY tasty! I added more of the turkey sausage as my package contained 1 lb and we like it heartier. Flavor was great ... Very quick and easy to prepare ... a great weekday dinner. Bonus is the low calorie count and healthy ingredients.

I made this for dinner last night after receiving it from the "recipe of the day" email. I never make lasanga because it is so time consuming. This was fantastic! I will definitely be making this again and again!

I used ground turkey instead of sausage and it was delicious. I also grated the zucchini to make it a little less noticable to my 7 year old.

Definitely going to make this again!

Used turkey pepperoni in place of the sausage. Was a hit with the fam.
