Description

A delicious and hearty vegetarian lasagna made with layers of pasta, rich tomato sauce, and creamy ricotta cheese.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 9 lasagna noodles
  • 2 cups ricotta cheese
  • 3 cups marinara sauce
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

  5. Layer 3 lasagna noodles over the sauce, followed by half of the ricotta cheese, half of the sautéed vegetables, and a third of the mozzarella cheese.
