I had some pizza toppings left over and decided to make
something a little different. I thought about making lasagna cups but decided in
the end to make a flat lasagna. I didn’t have any ricotta cheese so I decided
to experiment using some greek yogurt that I had. Any toppings would be great
in this. Below is what I had on hand.
Pizza Lasagna
8 whole wheat lasagna noodles
½ cup greek yogurt
2 cups low fat mozzarella cheese + ¼ cup additional for top
of lasagna
¼ cup parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
1 small jar pizza sauce
1 shallot- sliced thin
1 can mushrooms (can use fresh but canned was all I had)
Sundried tomatoes- cut into bite sized bits
Preheat oven to 375
Cook the noodles until they are al dente. Strain and let
cool. In a small bowl mix the yogurt, Italian seasonings, mozzarella and
parmesan cheese. The consistency will be sort of a paste texture. In a small
deep dish baker (mine was about 8") or small pan spread a thin layer of sauce in the bottom then
add a single layer of lasagna noodles. I cut the noodles in half to fit better
in my baker. Add some more sauce, a third of the cheese mixture and a third of
the toppings. The cheese might be a little hard to spread with a spoon. I just
used my hands to break little pieces and sprinkle over the sauce. Continue the
noodle, cheese, sauce and toppings in three layers. Once all the layers are
done sprinkle the remaining ¼ cup cheese on top and put in oven. Cook until
cheese is melted and lasagna is cooked through. I cooked it for about 30 minutes.
I was able to get 6 servings out of this. They are small
servings but they will freeze well and I plan on eating them with a fresh salad
or veggies for lunches.
