A comforting vegetable lasagna with layers of tender noodles, marinara sauce, and three kinds of cheese for a rich and satisfying dish.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 9 lasagna noodles
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 cups spinach, wilted
  • 1 zucchini, sliced
  • 1 bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 cup mushrooms, sliced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 cups ricotta cheese
  • 2 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded
  • 1 cup parmesan cheese, grated
  • 2 cups marinara sauce
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Cook the lasagna noodles according to package instructions until al dente, then drain and set them aside on a lightly oiled sheet to prevent sticking.
  2. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic and sauté until fragrant and the onion is translucent.
  3. Add the spinach, sliced zucchini, chopped bell pepper, and sliced mushrooms to the skillet. Cook until the vegetables are tender and most liquid has evaporated. Season with 1 teaspoon dried basil, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, salt, and pepper to taste.
  4. Spread a thin layer of marinara sauce across the bottom of a baking dish, then place three lasagna noodles on top. Dollop and spread half of the ricotta cheese over the noodles, add half of the vegetable mixture evenly, and sprinkle with one-third of the shredded mozzarella. Repeat this layered sequence.
  5. Top with the remaining three noodles, spread remaining marinara over them, then top with the rest of the mozzarella and the grated parmesan. Cover the dish with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
  6. Allow the lasagna to cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

Make-ahead friendly and easy to swap vegetables. Letting the lasagna rest ensures cleaner slices.
