I have made this lasagna-like zucchini casserole frequently over the years and shared the recipe with many. Recently, my daughter had some heart trouble, so I adapted the recipe to cut fat and calories. We think this version is just as delicious. -Eleanor Hauserman, Huntsville, Alabama

A quick and easy lasagna. I grated the zucchini in the food processor, which did away with the need to cook it. I added two layers of no-boil noodles on top of the first two sauce layers. Raw zucchini is full of water and the noodles helped keep the dish from being too wet. I also added more dried herbs and I used real eggs. My husband and kids loved it.

I followed the recipe exactly when I made it last summer, and we thought it was great for such a low-calorie dinner. I recommend the award-winning Basil Garlic Bread recipe to go with it. :)

Very good dish. Was enjoyed by all at dinner. I followed the advice of the person's review below mine saying that her zucchini was mushy when she precooked before assembling the dish. I did not precooked the zucchini thinking the same thing and my zucchini was not cooked all the way through, still pretty crunchy and I did not slice it thick. I will definitely precook the zucchini the next time.

I relay enjoyed this recipe. So did my husband. Though I found the Zucchini a little to mushy. I probably won't steam it the next time I decide to make this. I found it a little redundant.

This was wonderful and easy, and tasted fabulous (even better the second day). I did not miss the meat at all and made me feel good with the points I would be saving since I do W/W.

I added a half pound of browned ground turkey to up the protein a bit for my diabetic husband. Will probably increase the spices next time. Very tasty!
