Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Lightly coat a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
- Heat oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and cook, stirring often, until just tender, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook, stirring often, for 1 minute. Transfer the onion and garlic to a large bowl; stir in frozen vegetables and basil.
- Melt butter in the skillet over medium-high heat. Add flour and whisk to combine. Cook, whisking, for 30 seconds. Gradually add milk; cook, whisking constantly, until the mixture thickens, 2 to 3 minutes. Add Parmesan and salt; whisk until smooth. Remove from heat.
- Spread 1/2 cup of the cheese sauce on the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Layer on 3 lasagna noodles, evenly spacing the noodles crosswise in the dish. (The noodles will not cover the bottom of the dish but will expand when baking.) Top the noodles evenly with 3 cups vegetable mixture, 3/4 cup cheese sauce and 3/4 cup shredded cheese. Layer 3 lasagna noodles over the cheese; spread half the squash over the noodles and sprinkle with 3/4 cup cheese. Repeat the layers once, starting with noodles and ending with squash. Sprinkle with 3/4 cup cheese. Layer with the remaining 3 lasagna noodles; spread the remaining cheese sauce over the noodles and sprinkle with the remaining cheese.
- Lightly coat a sheet of foil with cooking spray; cover the baking dish coated-side down. Bake for 30 minutes. Uncover and bake until golden brown and bubbly, about 15 minutes more. Let stand for 15 minutes before serving. Sprinkle with basil, if desired.

Steps:
- Prep vegetables: in a big bowl, combine the eggplant, zucchini, peppers, onions, garlic, rosemary, ½ cup basil, salt, pepper, and ½ cup olive oil; marinate for 2-3 hours at room temperature.
- Make the sauce: scald milk in a medium saucepan (look for small bubbles forming around the edge) over low heat for about 4 minutes.
- Remove pan from heat, but keep warm.
- In another medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat until completely melted.
- Whisk in the flour and let the mixture foam and cook, whisking occasionally, for 3 minutes or until it is a light tan color (you will notice a nutty aroma to the mixture).
- Slow whisk in the hot milk and cook, whisking constantly, until the sauce thickens, about 5 minutes.
- If the milk has cooled, add it gradually in small portions, whisking between each addition to prevent lumps.
- If the sauce isn't thickening, increase the heat slightly and whisk constantly so as not to burn the sauce.
- Season sauce with salt to taste and remove from the heat; cool before using in the lasagna dish.
- Make the lasagna: preheat oven to 375°.
- Remove the vegetables from the marinade to a deep roasting pan; roast in the oven until tender and browned, about 30 minutes, stirring twice during roasting time.
- In a skillet, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil; add in the mushrooms and saute over medium heat for 3 minutes; add in the baby spinach, sauteing until wilted and tender; set aside.
- In a big pot of boiling, salted water, cook the lasagna noodles until al dente; drain and rinse with cold water; dry on a towel.
- Assemble: pour 1 cup of Bechamel sauce over the bottom of an oiled 13 x 9 inch baking dish and arrange ¼ of the roasted vegetable mixture on top.
- Cover with pasta, then top with ¼ more of vegetable mixture, add some mushrooms, some diced tomatoes, ½ cup Becamel sauce, some of the remaining basil, and ½ cup Parmesan cheese.
- Repeat the procedure two times, ending with Parmesan cheese and ½ cup Bechamel sauce.
- Cover with foil and bake for 10 minutes until the lasagna is bubbling and golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and let rest 10 minutes before cutting to serve.
