Why you will love the recipe
This recipe is great when you have zucchini pilling up and looking to make a tasty meal that the family will enjoy. You also are cooking it in the slow cooker so you that it is going to go slow so you can start it at lunchtime and it will be ready for dinner or you can start it in the morning and it will be ready when you get home this is what we tend to do with most are slow cooker meals is get it ready before work and they have it done for dinner. Don't pass up on this flavor it also has fewer calories than the traditional version it also it not going to heat up your house like the oven or at least like our oven does.

Ingredients needed to be able to make a lasagna:
Noodle: you are going to need a base to be able to make the layer of the lasagna. I have had some fun with different lasagnas which people have been very creative about that they use for noodles layers. See variations
Filling: most of the filling that I have tried is some kind of cheese mixed with spices and maybe some vegetables. This helped add most of the flavor most of the time.
Sauce: Sauce is what helps bring everything together and helps the flavors to mix

Variations:
- Can change the sauce that you are using Alfredo, marinara, and BBQ are a few options
- Can change the meat that you use chicken, beef, or no meat at all Think this is based on what you like.
- Change up the noodles that you are using in this case you are using zucchini if you want you could use eggplant or you could just use normal lasagna noodles
- Change up the cheese that you are using parmesan, mozzarella, ricotta, or parmigiana Reggiano
There are so many variations of lasagna that you can make. We had a get-together not too long ago everyone brought a different kind of lasagna. A few of the ones that we had were pepperoni, cream cheese, and fettuccine Alfredo. I think that is what cooking is about just having fun and trying new things.

Hints
You may want to use a mandolin to make it so that all the slices have the same thickness so that it will cook more evenly
How to get rid of too much last you can try using lemon juice or vinegar. I have used this trick for a few things but I haven’t had too many cusses with it on this one.

- Salt and then wipe away the water in the zucchini
- Grill the zucchini or cook in some ways to remove the water before cooking to help remove the moisture
