Preparation Steps

  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and garlic and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add mushrooms, zucchini, and bell pepper and cook until tender, about 5-7 minutes.
  • Stir in crushed tomatoes, oregano, salt, and pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • In a medium bowl, combine ricotta cheese, Parmesan cheese, and egg.
  • Spread a thin layer of tomato sauce in the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish. Top with 3 lasagna noodles, 0.5 of the ricotta mixture, 0.33 of the mozzarella cheese, and 0.33 of the remaining tomato sauce. Repeat layers twice. Finish with the rest of the mozzarella cheese.
  • Cover with foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove foil and bake for another 20 minutes, or until golden brown and bubbly.
  • Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.
