One Pan Veggie Lasagna Food

ONE-PAN VEGGIE LASAGNA

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a deep, ovenproof saute pan. Add the onions and fry over a medium heat for 5 minutes until softened, then add the garlic and cook for a minute more.
• Add the zucchini and mushrooms, increase the heat and fry for about 5 minutes until they are lightly browned. Add the chopped tomatoes and 400 milliliters (1 3/4 cups) boiling water and season well with salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes over a medium heat.
• Preheat the broiler to high. Stir the spinach and pasta strips into the pan and, once the spinach has wilted, stir in the basil and two-thirds of the Parmesan and half the mozzarella. Scatter the rest of the cheese over the top and put under the broiler for 3 to 5 minutes until bubbling and oozingly melty.

VEGETABLE LASAGNA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375.
• Mix the ricotta, 3 cups mozzarella, parmesan, egg, 2 tablespoons minced garlic, and Italian Seasoning in a large bowl. Set aside.
• In a very large pan or dutch oven, saute the remaining garlic in the olive oil. Add the mushrooms, zucchini, yellow squash, and carrot, and cook until the squash is translucent and slightly browned. Add the spinach to the pan, and cook briefly until limp.
• Pour in the pasta sauce and water, and bring to a boil. Add the frozen broccoli florets, and cook until thawed.
• In a 9x13 pan, put one or two ladles full of the sauce mixture (with as few of the vegetables as possible). Then start building your lasagna as follows: uncooked lasagna noodles, one third of the cheese mixture, one third of the sauce, repeat. When finished, sprinkle the reserved mozzarella on top.
• Bake, covered with aluminum foil, for 45 minutes. Uncover and continue baking for 10-15 minutes longer, until the cheese is brown and bubbly.
• Delicious with a crisp salad and italian bread on the side!
