Default Ever Hear Of Lasagna Made With Zucchini Instead Of Noodles?

That's what I thought. Maybe it's soupy if they insist on precooking
the zucchini (which is probably too thick if it needs to be
precooked)... or they "cook" their lasagna in a microwave. I wouldn't
precook zucchini ribbons and IMO there's no reason for the lasagna to
be any more soupy than usual, considering there's a certain amount of
evaporation during the baking process. The biggest difference I can
imagine is that there's no pasta in there to firm it up for the next
day's eating.
