Matzo Lasagne

The love affair with Matzo continues, and this delicious version of lasagne is light and healthy too (with only 110 calories in each sheet of Matzo!).  I can't wait to try different variations of lasagna using Matzo.  The ingredients for this one are simple - just Matzo, onions, tomatoes, cheese, basil and olive oil. 

Saute 1/2 an onion (add 1 shallot for extra flavor) in some olive oil until browned, add in 3-4 chopped tomatoes - cook until well combined, then set aside:


Grease a baking dish for assembling the lasagne (I used an 8"x8" size dish).  

Boil a pot of water to soften the sheets of Matzo - place each sheet in boiling water for about 1 minute, then lift out with a slotted spatula; let them drain before layering in the lasagna dish.  Layer a sheet of softened Matzo, the tomato mixture, then some mozzarella cheese.  Repeat layers 3 times.

Bake for about 8-10 minutes in a 350 degree oven.  
Top with fresh basil and enjoy!
