Vegetarian Lasagna

[Guest guest]

I have a recipe for lasagna that uses homemade tomato sauce and no

meat, but uses real cheese, so if she is a strict vegetarian she may

not eat dairy, but if your daughter is lacto ovo you can use the

following recipe:

 

1.5 boxes of lasagna noodles

(I use the Ronzoni no bake lasagna, other no bake noodles I find are

not very good, try these or you can try whole wheat or spinach

lasagna noodles that you have to cook until just tender before

baking).

1 large container of part-skim Ricotta cheese

1 12 0z package of shredded mozzarella cheese

1 egg

No meat tomato sauce

You can add:

sliced mushrooms, thin-sliced eggplant, shredded carrots and/or

zucchini

Cook lasagna noodles until just tender, unless no bake brand

beat egg in a dish and fold in Ricotta until incorporated

You may add some salt and pepper or crushed parsley if desired

In a rectangular pan, put enough sauce to cover bottom of pan and

then a layer of noodles

layer Ricotta mixture, shredded mozzarella, veggies and dribble sauce

over each layer and then repeat until pan is full or ingredients are

gone, top with layer of noodles covered in sauce and sprinkle with

parm cheese or shredded mozzarella if desired. Cover pan with foil.

 

Bake at 350 degrees for 50 minutes. Uncover in last 10 minutes of

cooking time. If your daughter does not eat dairy, try the Vegan

recipe.

 

Good luck!
