Even though this lasagna isn’t cooked, it boasts some pretty bold and classic Italian flavors. The cashew cheese has the same consistency as the ricotta or mozzarella cheeses you know and love. Make sure that you cut the zucchini thick enough to support the layers, but not too thick because it can be a little tough to chew.
