Lasagna noodle substitution

- Substitute: Zucchini slices for noodles
- Slice four to five medium-size zukes lengthwise into three-quarter-inch-thick strips, instructs Lise Battaglia, a New Jersey chef whose past clients include Jon Bon Jovi. Sprinkle Italian seasoning on the strips, place them in a single layer on a nonstick cookie sheet, and bake at 425 degrees F for 20 minutes. You want them firm, not crisp. "Then simply make the lasagna as you normally would, replacing lasagna noodles with the baked zucchini," she says.
- Carbs Eliminated: 36 g per serving
- The Taste: "Delicious. The zucchini provides texture that you don't get from noodles alone."
