How to Make Vegan Zucchini Lasagna Rolls

To make this vegan lasagna, the thinly sliced zucchini is placed on a paper towel, sprinkled with kosher salt and left to sit for about 20 minutes while you make the homemade tomato sauce. This process removes the excess water that is stored in zucchini. You don’t want to skip this step or the water will make it’s way into the sauce when it’s in the oven and water down the whole dish.

This recipe can also be constructed with eggplant slices instead of zucchini to convert it to vegan eggplant lasagna.

After about 20 minutes, you’ll press each side with a paper towel and spread each slice on 1 side with whatever hummus you choose to use, layer with spinach leaving the hummus exposed on the very end to act as glue, then roll it up! Place each roll seam side down in a 8″ x 8″ baking dish coated with a layer of tomato sauce.

The dish then is topped with more tomato sauce, baked until heated through (about 15 min). Top with fresh basil and toasted pine nuts to finish. Parmesan cheese can also be added, but the fresh summery flavors really shine on their own without it.



Serve this with a side salad and you’ll still have room for dessert after this light + healthy summer lasagna!
