  • 2 medium zucchini
  • 1 can diced tomatoes
  • 2 Tbsp. tomato paste

Directions

Peel zucchini in strips with a cheese knife. Salt the zucchini strips and lay them between paper towels to drain excess moisture for 30 minutes.

Meanwhile, brown the meat and drain. Add to it the spices of choice plus remaining ingredients except zucchini. Drain excess liquid.

Spray an 8X8 inch pan with nonstick spray. Make a layer with zucchini strips. Add 1/3 of the meat mixture. Sprinkle on 1/3 of the cheese. Repeat layers 2X ending with the cheese. Cover with foil and bake at 350 degrees F for 30 minutes.

Serves 4.

Does anyone know the WW point value of each serving?

The recipe sounds very good.

But I'm a little lazy, I just slice accross (rounds) about 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick slices.

I do every thing else the same except no salt - I can't have salt.

And depending how thick you slice it, you may need to cook it a little longer.
