- In a large bowl, mix the fresh ricotta, 1/3 of the Parmesan, spinach, and mushroom mixture. Season with oregano, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper.
- To assemble the lasagna: Pour enough marinara sauce to coat the bottom of a 9×13 baking dish. Layer 1/3 of the zucchini noodles like you would lasagna. Add 1/3 of the ricotta mixture and spread smoothly to cover zucchini. Put small dabs of mozzarella on top and a few basil leaves. Sprinkle Parmesan on top. Repeat until you have three layers.
