Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Wash and slice the eggplant, zucchini, and bell peppers. Spread them out on the baking sheet, brush with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper.
- Roast vegetables for about 20 minutes, flipping halfway through until tender and slightly charred.
- Cook lasagna noodles in a large pot of salted boiling water for 8-10 minutes until al dente. Drain and set aside.
- In a bowl, combine the ricotta cheese with minced garlic, dried oregano, dried basil, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Whisk until smooth.
- Spread ½ cup of marinara sauce on the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish. Layer with three noodles, half of the roasted vegetables, half of the ricotta mixture, and ⅓ of the mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.
- Repeat layering with more marinara sauce, three more noodles, remaining vegetables, ricotta, and another layer of cheese.
- For the top layer, place three noodles over the last vegetable and cheese layers, spread remaining marinara sauce, and sprinkle remaining mozzarella and Parmesan.
- Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes until cheese is golden and bubbling.
- Let the lasagna rest for about 10 minutes before slicing. Garnish with fresh basil leaves before serving.
