Serves 6
Ingredients:
- 4 fresh lasagne pasta sheets
- 500g mince (leave mince out if you prefer vegetarian)
- 1 clove garlic
- 1/2 brown onion
- 1 tsp Italian herbs
- 250g baby spinach
- 1 zucchini, grated
- 1 carrot, grated
- 500g fresh firm ricotta
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1/2 cup grated parmesan
- 500g bottle passata
- 3 cups grated mozzarella
Method:
- Cut each pasta sheet in 6. Place in a dish and cover with boiling water. Set aside to soften then drain.
- In the mean time brown mince, add garlic and onion and cook until softened. Stir through herbs and passata sauce. Allow to cook for 10-15mins. (this can even be pre-cooked the night before to make the prep easier!)
- Place spinach in a bowl and cover with boiling water until wilted then drain and rinse under cold water. Squeeze out excess water.
- Squeeze liquid from zucchini then combine the spinach, zucchini, carrot, ricotta, egg and 1 ⁄ 3 cup parmesan in a large bowl.
- Lightly spray 6x microwave safe mugs or ramekins with oil.
- Place 1 tbs of the mince sauce in each mug then a pasta square and 2 tbs of ricotta mixture. Top with 1 tbs mozzarella and 1 tbs meat sauce. Repeat layering. Finish off with pasta then remaining parmesan and mozzarella.
- Cover each mug with plastic wrap and microwave on high for 2 minutes. Uncover and microwave for a further minute or until cheese is bubbling. Leave for a minute to cool. Enjoy!
