Ingredients
- 12 lasagna noodles, cooked according to package instructions
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 zucchini, diced
- 1 red bell pepper, diced
- 1 yellow bell pepper, diced
- 1 eggplant, diced
- 1 can (28 ounces / 800g) crushed tomatoes
- 1 can (6 ounces / 170g) tomato paste
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 15 ounces (425g) ricotta cheese
- 1/2 cup (120ml) grated Parmesan cheese
- 3 cups (720ml) shredded mozzarella cheese
- Fresh basil or parsley for garnish (optional)
Direction
- Prepare the Vegetable Mixture:
- In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, sauté until softened.
- Add diced zucchini, red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, and eggplant to the skillet. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
- Prepare the Tomato Sauce:
- Stir in crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, dried basil, dried oregano, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Bring to a simmer and cook for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly. Remove from heat.
- Prepare the Cheese Mixture:
- In a bowl, combine ricotta cheese and grated Parmesan cheese. Mix well until smooth and well combined.
- Assemble the Lasagna:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Spread a thin layer of the vegetable-tomato sauce mixture on the bottom of a 9×13 inch baking dish.
- Arrange a layer of cooked lasagna noodles over the sauce.
- Spread half of the ricotta cheese mixture over the noodles.
- Spoon half of the remaining vegetable-tomato sauce mixture over the ricotta layer.
- Sprinkle with 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese.
- Repeat the layers: noodles, ricotta mixture, vegetable-tomato sauce mixture, and mozzarella cheese.
- Finish with a layer of noodles topped with the remaining vegetable-tomato sauce mixture and the remaining mozzarella cheese.
- Bake the Lasagna:
- Cover the baking dish loosely with aluminum foil.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
- Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the edges are golden brown.
- Let it Rest:
- Remove the lasagna from the oven and let it cool for about 10 minutes before slicing and serving. This allows it to set and makes it easier to slice neatly.
- Serve and Enjoy:
-
- Garnish with fresh basil or parsley if desired.
- Serve hot and enjoy this flavorful vegetarian lasagna!
