Roasted Zucchini Pesto Lasagna

This lasagna is just so good! With zucchini that’s roasted with plenty of garlic and olive oil, pesto in every layer to add a ton of brightness, and a simple sauce with cream cheese, all of it topped with feta for the perfect salty bite. It’s rich but not overly so and just proves that simple flavours are always the best.
