Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Cook lasagna noodles until al dente, drain, and set aside in olive oil.
- In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until translucent. Stir in minced garlic and sauté for another minute.
- Toss in zucchini, red and yellow bell peppers, and mushrooms into the skillet. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until vegetables are tender and slightly browned.
- Add fresh spinach to the skillet and stir until wilted (about 2 minutes). Pour in marinara sauce, sprinkle basil and oregano, and let simmer for 5 minutes.
- In a mixing bowl, combine ricotta cheese, egg, salt, and pepper. Stir until smooth and creamy.
- In a baking dish, spread a thin layer of vegetable sauce on the bottom. Place 3 cooked lasagna noodles on top.
- Spread half of the ricotta mixture over the noodles, followed by half of the vegetable sauce. Sprinkle 1 cup of mozzarella cheese on top.
- Repeat layering with another 3 noodles, the rest of the ricotta mixture, the remaining vegetable sauce, and another cup of mozzarella.
- Finish with the final 3 noodles, cover with the last of the marinara sauce, and sprinkle remaining mozzarella and parmesan cheese on top.
- Cover with foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove foil and bake for another 15 minutes until cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
- Allow lasagna to cool for about 10 minutes before slicing to ensure neat servings.
