Now you can eat Lasagne EVERYDAY! No guilt!

Ok, so I am majorly late on posting this recipe for you all- sorry!
I originally made up this dish just over 5 years ago when I first got into cooking. I used to love a ready made lasagne, or my mums famous Lasagne, (definitely not healthy) over a salad for my evening meal. So I decided to trial a new idea after seeing someone use salad as a bun for a burger, it got me thinking about lots of dishes and how I could replace the 'bad' bits with 'good' bits- such as vegetables!

I'm a dumbass for not posting this immediately because I recently scrolled through Instagram and seen that there are already lots of people making this dish in similar ways. But I'm still going to share mine with you- because it is delicious and I thought of it all by myself 5 years ago before the days of Instagram. I didn't even own a cookbook then! Haha.
Actually saying that, I own about 10 cook books and have read NONE of them! I'm terrible for that actually.

Back to the subject!!....
