   Here us a recipe that never fails in my home….I make it quit often….

   Microwave Lasagna

   1 8-oz can tomato sauce
   1 medium onion, chopped
   1/4 tsp basil leaves
   1/4 tsp salt{optional}
   1/8 tsp pepper
   1/4 tsp oregano leaves
   1 cup ricotta cheese
   1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
   1 tsp parsley
   3 medium zucchini, about 9 inches long each
   1 large tomato, sliced
   2 tbsp grated parmesan cheese

   Combine tomato sauce, onion, basil, salt, pepper, & oregano in a small mixing bowl; set aside. In a medium bowl combine ricotta, mozzarella & parsley. Set aside.
   Peel zucchini & cut off the ends. Slice zucchini length-wise into strips. Arrange strips in 8×8-inch baking dish. Cover with waxed paper.
   Microwave on high for 6-8 minutes, or till fork tender, rearranging half way through cooking. Drain liquid; place zucchini on towels to absorb excess moisture; cool slightly. Layer 4-6 of the strips in the bottom of baking dish. Reserve 6 strips for second layer. Spread ricotta mixture over zucchini. Layer with sliced tomatoes.
   Spread half of the tomato sauce mixture over tomatoes; top with zuchini slices. Pour remaining sauce over zucchini & sprinkle with parmesan cheese. Reduce power to
   50%{medium} Microwave uncovered 20-25 minutes or till zucchini is tender & mixture is hot in the center. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.
