Luxurious courgette lasagne

So tonight we are trying the new courgettes lasagne sheets from Sainsbury's.

The recipe is for 4 persons 

2.5 syns per portion if using the cheese as a Healthy Extra A

You need:

500gr 5% or less mince beef

1 red onion chopped

1 red pepper choppped

4 mushrooms sliced (I did not use the stalks)

4 garlic cloves crushed 

1 tin of chopped tomatoes

1 pack of passata 

2tsp of mixed herbs 

1 pack of 400gr courgettes lasagne sheets

250ml of  bisto white sauce (made with water and I added a bit of Xantham gum to thicken it a bit more)

160gr reduced fat cheddar

Salt and black pepper to taste

Frylight 

Fry the onion until soft in frylight.

Add the the mushrooms, red pepper and garlic, I cooked until the mushrooms were soft.

Add the mince beef and cook until browned. 

Add the tin of tomatoes, passata, herbs and seasoning to the pan. Simmer until the sauce is thick (remember that the courgettes lasagne sheets will release water in the sauce when cooking)

 

Prepare the white sauce as indicated on the bisto tin, add some xantham gum (sparingly) if you want it to be thicker.

Spray some frylight in an oven dish, layer the courgettes lasagne sheets, pour some mince beef mixture on top, I did add a thin layer of white sauce ( 4 Tbsp of it). 

 

Repeat until you have used all the courgettes sheets. Pour the left over white sauce on top of the courgettes lasagne sheets and cover with grated reduced fat cheddar.

 

 

Cook in a preheated oven at 180 degrees Celsius for 45 minutes.

 

Enjoy 😊
