Summer Lasagna
  1. Cook the lasagna sheets according to package directions. To keep the lasagna warm, don't rinse through cold water.

  2. Make the whipped ricotta: In a food processor, combine ricotta, olive oil, salt and pepper to taste and pulse continuously until smooth-ish. Then, add the lemon zest and basil and pulse a few more times.

  3. Cook the cherry tomato sauce: Heat a few drizzles of olive oil in a skillet over medium high heat. Cook down the cherry tomatoes until blistered, and then press them to make a rustic sauce. Stir in the garlic, basil (about 2 tablespoons), salt and pepper to taste. Sauté until fragrant.

  4. Sauté zucchini and yellow squash: Meanwhile, in another skillet sauté the sliced zucchini and squash. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  5. Assemble: Start with a thin layer of tomato sauce, followed by a lasagna sheet, whipped ricotta, cherry tomato sauce, zucchini, fresh sliced basil, and shredded parmesan cheese. Repeat until you get about 3 layers.

  6. Finish with extra cheese on top. Enjoy!
