Vegetarian Lasagna


Vegetarian Lasagna recipe
When I made this Vegetarian Lasagna, I made a large pan of regular lasagna for the rest of my meat-loving family. Safe to say, my pan is gone and there is still a whole pan of meat, cheese and sauce left over!

Ingredients:

  • 1 box of lasagna noodles
  • 1 bag of fresh spinach (you can use frozen if you like)
  • 1 small onion
  • 1 small jar of mushrooms
  • 2 cloves of garlic
  • 2 cups low-fat ricotta cheese
  • 1 tbsp parmesan cheese
  • 1 egg
  • 1 can fire roasted tomatoes
  • 1 small can tomato paste
  • 2 cups low fat shredded cheese
  • Water
  • Olive Oil

Steps:

  1. Boil lasagna noodles until soft. Set aside
  2. Chop onion and garlic and sauté in olive oil; add spinach and cook down then add mushrooms
  3. Mix ricotta and Parmesan cheese.
  4. Whisk egg and add to cheese mixture. Set aside.
  5. Mix tomato paste with water to thin out slightly. Season to taste.
  6. Spray 8×8 pan and put spoonful of tomato sauce on the bottom.
  7. Begin layering: noodles, ricotta cheese mix, tomatoes, spinach mix, shredded cheese.
  8. Finish with noodles, sauce and cheese on top.
  9. Bake at 400 degrees for approx. 45 mins.
  10. Enjoy!! 🙂

    Margo, just loved this recipe! I’ll try to prepare it next weekend for my husband and kids. But I guess I’ll use fresh lasagna noodles, it’s easier, you need more sauce though.
    The situation you told about your meat-loving family eating your portion is so common when meat-loving people try a very good vegetarian dish. Thanks for recipe, Annie

    Awesome recipe! I made something very similar but with different tomatoes and not with ricotta but with a low fat cheese. I will try this out though and let you know.
