  • 1 medium zucchini, chopped
  • 8 ounces mushrooms, sliced

  • 1 (15 ounce) container ricotta cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add garlic, bell peppers, zucchini, and mushrooms. Cook until vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes. Stir in oregano, basil, salt, and pepper.
  3. In a bowl, combine ricotta cheese, egg, and Parmesan cheese.
  4. Spread a thin layer of marinara sauce in the bottom of a 9×13 inch baking dish.
  5. Arrange 3 lasagna noodles over the sauce.
  6. Spread half of the ricotta mixture over the noodles.
  7. Top with one-third of the vegetable mixture.
  8. Spoon about one-third of the remaining marinara sauce over the vegetables.
  9. Sprinkle with 1 cup of mozzarella cheese.
  10. Repeat layers: 3 noodles, remaining ricotta mixture, half of the remaining vegetables, half of the remaining marinara sauce, and 1 cup of mozzarella cheese.
  11. Top with the final 3 noodles, remaining vegetables, remaining marinara sauce, and remaining 1 cup of mozzarella cheese.
  12. Cover the baking dish with foil.
  13. Bake for 25 minutes. Remove foil and bake for an additional 20-25 minutes, or until bubbly and golden brown.
  14. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.
