1 cup diced onion
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 24-ounce jar sugar-free marinara sauce
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions:
Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 40 minutes
Servings: 8
Preheat the Oven:
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius).
Prepare the Meat Sauce:
In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef and Italian sausage until fully cooked.
Add diced onions and minced garlic, cooking until onions are soft.
Stir in the sugar-free marinara sauce, oregano, basil, salt, and pepper. Allow the flavours to mingle for 10-15 minutes while simmering.
Prepare the Cheese Mixture:
Combine ricotta cheese and egg in a mixing basin. Mix until well combined.
Assemble the Lasagna:
Spread a thin layer of the beef sauce in a greased 9×13 inch baking dish.
Layer zucchini slices on top of the sauce.
Spread half of the ricotta mixture over the zucchini, followed by a layer of shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan.
Repeat the layers until all ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of meat sauce and a generous sprinkle of mozzarella and Parmesan on top.
Bake:
Cover the baking dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.
Remove the foil and continue baking for another 15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbling and brown.
Serve:
Allow 10 minutes for the lasagna to rest before slicing.
Garnish with fresh basil leaves if desired.
