    Add an egg to the cottage chesse mixture, it won't be runny. I always add them to regular lasagna. And don't cover with foil. - 1/2/09

    This is a great Zucchini Lasagna and it freezes well to. I chilled the lasagna overnight in the fridge and then cut it into (1) serving size square, wrapped in foil and popped them in the freezer. Thanks for sharing. - 3/24/09

    I followed the suggestions in the comments to use marinara sauce and add an egg to the cottage cheese. I also used carrots and zucchi8ni, very thinly sliced. I cooked it nearly twice as long as the recipe says to get the vegetables cooked through. - 3/16/09

    Very good, but as suggested by others I doubled the veggies and even added some eggplant and tomatoes. I also substituted the cottage cheese for fat-free cream cheese which made it all the better! - 7/7/08
