I wanted to make lasagna for the weekend and so, I was perusing my options, I am sick of zucchini. There, I said it. If you are like me, you are completely bored with the stuff and want something else.
I was in my grocery store produce department searching for something else and since I wasn't able to find eggplant, I decided to try yellow crook neck squash. I chose the small to medium size range because the bigger they are the more harsh the seeds are. Not tasty at all.
I made the lasagna like I did with the zucchini but, I used the yellow squash and to my amazement, I found myself really enjoying it. Even the hubby enjoyed it. The yellow squash tastes neutral enough that it was like having noodles without all the issues.
I even shared the recipe after many requests with family members who are going low carb. They were planning on making it, soon.
I finished my three loaf pans of the recipe and managed to have one of them for leftovers for the next day. I finished off that loaf pan last night, I had some and my doggies had the rest, I didn't want to have to reheat it for a third time. No thanks.
The best part...no carbs and completely gluten free for those of you who can't have gluten.
