Zucchini Lasagna (no carb)

We have made a few variations of this, but this is the last one that we made recently. Ingredients list can vary to your liking, But this is our latest recipe below.

Ingredients Needed:
Zucchini - Approx 4 if smaller ones, but only 1 if you're able to find the giant ones.
Fresh tomatoes, or approx 16 oz can of fresh tomatoes. (to make sauce).
Toppings of your choosing: We used Onion, (mixed in sauce), mushrooms, raw cabbage (cole slaw mix), can of french green beans.
1lb ground meat (beef, turkey, pork, chicken). We found pork on sale this time.
8oz of Mozzarella Cheese (or cheese of your choice)

---

Start by browning the meat in a pan. You may season the meat to your desire with a little salt, pepper, cayenne pepper, or spice that is desired.  While that is browning, you can start slicing the zucchini.
Slice the Zucchini the long way as seen in pic below. I was able to use a cheese slicer to slice evenly.

Place one row of raw zucchini in the bottom of the pan as the base liner as seen above.

Optional: Use raw cabbage or other veggies to fill in any gaps. We used raw cabbage as it fills in easily.

Next we made our Red Sauce which I neglected to take any pictures of. But here are the steps:
Place raw tomatoes or canned tomatoes in a blender. We did not add any spices, but did add a few Arbol Chills to give it a little heat. Blended until it made a tomato sauce/paste, then added that directly to the meat when its almost done browning.  Let it simmer for a little bit so all the flavors can blend together.

Add the layer of meat on next.

Add another layer of zucchini if you have it.

We Added our French Style Green Beans here, but you can add any veggies.

Add Cheese.

Place in the oven on 350 Degrees for 30-40 minutes. If you have no frozen ingredients 30 should be plenty. Let stand for a few minutes to cool and for the juices to thicken. Then serve and enjoy!
