Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the Italian sausage and ground beef until browned and cooked through. Drain any excess fat.
- Add the Rao’s marinara sauce to the skillet with the cooked meat. Stir to combine, then let simmer for a few minutes.
- Ladle a small amount of the meat sauce into the bottom of a pie dish, just enough to cover the bottom.
- Arrange a layer of thinly sliced zucchini on top of the sauce in the pie dish.
- Sprinkle some shredded mozzarella cheese and Italian seasoning over the layer of zucchini.
- Spoon more meat sauce over the cheese and zucchini layer, spreading it evenly.
- Repeat the layers – zucchini slices, mozzarella cheese, Italian seasoning, and meat sauce – until you’ve used up all your ingredients, finishing with a layer of sauce on top.
- If desired, add pieces of torn-up sliced provolone cheese on top of the final layer of sauce.
- Season the top with additional Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper to taste.
- Cover the pie dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Remove the foil and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes, or until the cheese is golden brown and the zucchini is tender.
- Once done, let the zucchini lasagna cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
