There are a few simple steps you can follow if you want to get a flavorful vegetable lasagna, namely:
Step 1:
Start preparing the sauce by heating the olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and sauté until golden. Next, add the chopped tomatoes, tomato paste and spices, and let everything simmer on low heat for 20-30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Step 2:
To prepare the filling, heat the olive oil in a large frying pan, then add the onion and garlic and sauté over low heat until soft. Once this is done, dice the carrots, eggplant, zucchini and bell pepper, add them to the pan and cook for 5-7 minutes. Add the spinach and cook until tender, then season with salt and pepper to taste.
Step 3:
Preheat the oven to 180°C, then grease a baking sheet with cooking spray to prevent the dish from sticking and make it easier to serve later. Start assembling the vegetable lasagna by adding a thin layer of sauce, then place the lasagna sheets on top of it until you cover the entire surface of the tray. Next, add half of the vegetable filling, half of the ricotta cheese and another layer of tomato sauce.
Step 4:
Repeat the previous step once more, then cover with the last layer of lasagna sheets. Add the mozzarella and parmesan on top, and then bake in the oven for about 30-35 minutes or until golden. Once it is ready, let the lasagna rest for 10 minutes, then you can decorate it with fresh basil or oregano leaves and serve with your loved ones.
