EXCELLENT recipe from tonight
I made this tonight YUMMMYYY
(it's actually a weight watchers recipe)
cooking spray
2 medium tomatoes sliced
2 med. zucchini sliced
12 oz lean ground beef
1 large onion finely chopped
2 med. garlic cloves minced
1 8oz can tomato sauce
2 cup ricotta cheese (can use part skim)
1 large egg yolk
1/2 cup parm. cheese
1 tbsp Italian seasoning
1/8 tsp. each salt and pepper (or to taste)
Preheat oven to 500oF. Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray and spread tomatoes and zucchini over sheet. Roast vegetables for 10 to 12 min.
Meanwhile, in a large, nonstick skillet, saute beef, onion and garlic until beef is browned. Stir in tomato sauce and bring to a simmer.
Drain beef and spread mixture in a shallow baking dish ( 9x13) and layer with roasted vegetables. Reduce oven temp to 350oF.
Whisk together the ricotta, egg yolk, parm. cheese, herbs and salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Spoon over roasted vegetable and smooth with a rubber spatula.
Bake until very hot and bubbling around edges, about 35 minutes. Cut into six equal pieces and serve immediately
