Zucchini Lasagna

This is such an amazing recipe that's essentially pasta-less lasagna. Low carb and low fat! What's not to love. I love SkinnyTaste - she's so amazing! So I invite you to check out her lasagna:

Personally I would reduce the crushed tomatos and add some grilled fresh tomatos instead. Yum! Also mix it up with sliced eggplant (grilled as well) to make it a more gardeny-lasagna with a variety of veggies. Chopped eggplant could be used in lieu of the beef also, making this one vegetarian :)

What do you think?
