1/2  
teaspoons dried oregano leaves  
(4 ounce) can mushroom stems and pieces  
purchased precooked or oven-ready lasagna  
noodles (each about 7 × 3 inches)  
cups shredded Mozzarella cheese (8 ounces)  
2
Shred the zucchini by rubbing it across the largest holes of a shredder.  
You will need about 1 cup. Mix the spaghetti sauce and zucchini in a  
medium bowl.  
Drain the thawed spinach in a strainer, then squeeze out the excess  
moisture from the spinach, using paper towels or a clean kitchen towel,  
until the spinach is dry.  
Mix the spinach, cottage cheese, Parmesan cheese and oregano in a medium  
bowl. Drain the mushrooms in a strainer. Spread 1/2 cup of the sauce  
mixture in the ungreased square pan.  
Top sauce mixture in pan with 2 noodles, placing them so they do not  
overlap or touch the sides of the pan because they will expand as they  
bake. Spread one fourth of the remaining sauce mixture (about 1/2 cup)  
over the noodles.  
Drop one fourth of the spinach mixture by small spoonfuls over the sauce  
mixture; spread carefully, pulling with the tines of a fork if necessary.  
Sprinkle with one fourth of the mushrooms and 1/2 cup of the Mozzarella  
cheese.  
Repeat layering three more times, beginning with 2 more noodles and  
following directions in steps 4 and 5. Cover with plastic wrap and then  
with aluminum foil and refrigerate up to 24 hours. (The plastic wrap keeps  
the lasagna from touching the aluminum foil while being refrigerated.)  
Heat the oven to 400º. Remove the plastic wrap from the lasagna, then  
cover the lasagna again with the aluminum foil. Bake 45 minutes. Carefully  
remove the foil, and continue baking about 10 minutes longer or until  
lasagna is bubbly around the edges. Remove from oven and let stand 10  
minutes, so the lasagna will become easier to cut and serve.
