Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 teaspoons olive oil
8 ounces sliced mushrooms
1 zucchini, diced
1 sweet bell pepper (any color), seeded and diced
1 onion, diced
1 tablespoon minced fresh garlic
1 egg, beaten
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley ((or 2 teaspoons dried parsley flakes))
2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil ((or 2 teaspoons dried basil))
15 ounces ricotta cheese ((or sub with 16 ounces small curd cottage cheese))
2 ¼ cups grated mozzarella cheese, divided
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese, divided
24 ounces (2 ½ cups) store-bought (or homemade) marinara sauce
9 oven-ready, no-boil lasagna noodles (or as many noodles as needed to fit your dish)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Spray a 9 x 13-inch baking dish with cooking spray and set aside.
  • In a large skillet or Dutch oven, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms, zucchini, bell pepper, onion, and garlic. Cook and stir the veggies just until tender (about 3-5 minutes).
  • While the veggies cook, use a separate bowl to stir together egg, parsley, basil, ricotta cheese, 1 ¼ cups mozzarella, and ¼ cup Parmesan.
  • When the vegetables are done cooking, stir the marinara sauce into the skillet.
  • Spread ¼ of the marinara-vegetable sauce mixture in a thin layer in the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Top with 3 no-boil lasagna noodles (or as many as you need to cover a single layer in the dish), ⅓ of the ricotta mixture, and another ¼ of the sauce mixture.
  • Repeat layers two more times. Finish with remaining 1 cup of mozzarella and ¼ cup of Parmesan cheese on top. Cover with a piece of greased foil.
  • Bake for 35 minutes. Remove foil, and bake for another 5-10 minutes (or until heated through and cheese on top is browned). Let stand for about 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

2 tbsp tomato purée
200ml white wine
3 chopped tomatoes
1 bunch of basil, leaves picked
85g butter
85g plain flour

Turn up the heat a little and stir in the tomato purée. Cook for 1 min, pour in the white wine, then cook for 5 mins until this has reduced by two-thirds. Pour over the chopped tomatoes and add the basil leaves. Bring to the boil then simmer for 20 mins. Leave to cool then whizz in a food processor. Will keep, cooled, in the fridge for up to three days or frozen for three months.
  • To make the white sauce, melt the butter in a saucepan, stir in the plain flour, then cook for 2 mins. Slowly whisk in the milk, then bring to the boil, stirring. Turn down the heat, then cook until the sauce starts to thicken and coats the back of a wooden spoon. Will keep, cooled, in the fridge for up to three days or frozen for three months.

Top with a layer of lasagne sheets, then drizzle over a quarter of the white sauce. Repeat until you have three layers of pasta.
