This creation is one of my favourites.<\/p>\n

It is has the authentic look of a traditional Lasagne but is more like a high protein meat and vegetable bake.<\/p>\n

Truly delicious!<\/p>\n

\n3. \u00a0In a bowl combine your cottage cheese and egg whites, mix thoroughly then place to one side. (This part is optional but i find it does add a little extra creamy layer that is very well balanced in the centre<\/strong><\/em>)

\n5. In a deep oven dish place an even amount of your meat mixture then cover with a layer of zucchini strips.
