Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 red bell pepper, diced
  • 1 zucchini, diced
  • 1 cup sliced mushrooms
  • 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
  • 1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce

  • 12 lasagna noodles
  • 15 ounces ricotta cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add garlic, red bell pepper, zucchini, and mushrooms; cook until vegetables are tender, about 8-10 minutes.
  3. Stir in crushed tomatoes, tomato sauce, oregano, and basil. Season with salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat and let it cook for 15 minutes.
  4. In a medium bowl, combine ricotta cheese, egg, and Parmesan cheese.
  5. Spread a thin layer of vegetable sauce in the bottom of a 9×13 inch baking dish.
  6. Arrange 3 lasagna noodles over the sauce.
  7. Spread half of the ricotta mixture over the noodles.
  8. Top with a layer of vegetable sauce and then half of the mozzarella cheese.
  9. Repeat layers: noodles, remaining ricotta, sauce, and remaining mozzarella.
  10. Cover with foil and bake for 25 minutes.
  11. Remove foil and bake for an additional 20-25 minutes, or until bubbly and the cheese is lightly browned.
  12. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • You can use any combination of your favorite vegetables such as spinach, carrots, or eggplant.
  • For a richer flavor, roast the vegetables before adding them to the sauce.
  • If you prefer a firmer lasagna, use no-boil lasagna noodles.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
