 Hi friends, welcome back to my channel and welcome if you are new here. Today I have a fantastic vegetarian, WW friendly meal coming your way. I made vegetarian lasagna and it was outstanding. I didn't even miss the meat. It was that delicious. So if you want to see exactly how to make this vegetarian lasagna, figure out the smart points and make a fantastic meal that you won't miss the meat in, then just stay tuned. So here's what we'll need for tonight's vegetarian lasagna. So first you're going to need some marinara. This is the Skinniish Dish Crock-Pot Marinara. No matter how much you have of this, it is zero smart points. I went ahead and just added some canned mushrooms to it when I bottled it up. So I will link the recipe down below for the Skinniish Dish Crock-Pot Marinara. Love it. Best marinara sauce and zero points. You'll also need some lasagna noodles, eggs, mushrooms, carrots, zucchini, low fat or fat free ricotta cheese, frozen thawed chopped spinach and some cheese. We'll need the Trader Joe's light shredded Mexican blend or any other light shredded cheese. I'm going to be doing the Trader Joe's organic mozzarella cheese and lastly just some fresh Parmesan. So let's get started on our lasagna. The first thing we need to do is we are going to wash and slice half of this container of mushrooms. We're going to peel and grate some carrots, slice our zucchini nice and thin, and then I'm going to put my spinach out on a paper plate with some paper towels. We're going to take our jar of marinara and we are going to empty the entire jar into a bowl. And to that we would normally add some oregano but my marinara is very heavily seasoned so I'm not going to add any additional oregano but if you do go with a jar marinara that you buy at the store make sure you recalculate your points and probably also add in that extra spice. And then we're going to put in our half of a cup of grated carrots and then we're going to stir the carrots and the marinara together and then we're going to pull out a second bowl and mix together our ricotta spinach and our eggs. So there is our marinara mixture. In a separate bowl we're going to mix together our ricotta cheese. Mine's still a bit frozen. It was in the freezer since I don't use it that often. I didn't want to waste it so you can always freeze your ricotta and then have it ready down the road for another recipe but it'll defrost before we need it. And to that we're going to add that drained spinach so we made sure we got all or most of the liquid out of that spinach before we added it to our ricotta. And lastly we're going to add in our two eggs and then we're going to give that a good mix together and we'll be ready to assemble our lasagna. So to get started on our lasagna the first thing that we are going to do is add just a little bit of our marinara here to the bottom of our nine by 13 pan. So we don't need very much just enough to add a little bit to the bottom so that our noodles aren't sitting directly onto the bottom of our pan. So I'd say maybe a cup or three quarters of a cup total and then to that we are going to go ahead and we're going to add three of our lasagna noodles across the bottom and then we're ready to add our layer. So we're going to put a little bit more sauce and we want to use about half of what's left here in our bowl on this second layer because our lasagna is going to be two layers total. So we want to make sure that we use a good amount of it on each layer. So get that spread out as evenly as you can over those noodles. So that's about half of our marinara mixture and then we're going to go in with a layer of our mozzarella or our ricotta and our spinach mix. So we're going to lay that out and then we're going to add some veggies. So let's get this ricotta and spinach mixture put nicely on top of our marinara. Oh this looks so good and then we'll add our veggies and we'll repeat for the second layer of our lasagna. Once you've added the ricotta and spinach layer we're going to add half of our really thin sliced zucchini and then we're also going to add half of the mushrooms and we're just going to create that nice layer in our lasagna and then we'll move on and repeat this process in layer number two. After our veggies are in we're going to add half of our mozzarella and shredded mix to this layer and also half of our parmesan to this layer. So there's about half of that cheese and then we're going to add half of our parmesan. This is exactly one half of a cup which is what the recipe calls for. So we're going to go ahead and add about half of that to this layer and then we're going to repeat. So here is our lasagna. It is heavy. It looks amazing. We're going to put this in the oven covered at 350 until it is cooked completely through. The last few minutes I will remove the foil and give the cheese a chance to brown and melt nicely on top but let's get this into the oven. Our lasagna is out of the oven you guys. This looks incredible. Look at that cheesy sauce. Oh yum. So I'm going to let this rest for about 10 minutes. Definitely makes it easier to cut if you let it rest a little bit out of the oven and then I will plate this up and give you the smart points. So here is my dinner. So this is one eighth of the lasagna. So you cut it into eight servings so it's quite a large serving and it is only seven smart points. So you can't eat it. You've got your vegetable. You have everything you need in one dish. So our vegetarian lasagna comes in at seven smart points. Thank you for joining me on another episode in my WW vegetarian series.
