Vegetable Lasagna


Finally i found a lasagna recipe to experiment and voila it was good.. Ok one warning, this recipe has egg in it, so if you dont eat egg, dont read further, or if you like go ahead and try it without egg..may be it'll turn out good..
Lasagna is an italian dish made with lasagna (a kind of pasta),cheese(a lot of it), sauce(pasta sauce) and vegetables (as in this case). There are different varieties of lasagna, like chicken lasagna, meat lasagna,etc..To start with i thought vegetable would be the safest..So here goes the recipe.

1 tbsp Oil (preferable olive oil)
1 Onion
1 Red/Green bell pepper
1 Carrot
2 container(15oz each) Ricotta cheese
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese (8oz)
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 eggs
2 jars (1lb) pasta sauce (i used Ragu old world style pasta sauce )
12 uncooked lasagna noodles

Preheat oven to 375F. Thinly slice onion, pepper and carrots. In a skillet heat oil and cook onion,bell pepper and carrots, stirring occasionally for abt 5 mts. In another bowl combine ricotta cheese, 1 cup mozarella cheese, 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese and the eggs.

In a 13*9 baking dish spread 1 cup of pasta sauce, layer 4 lasagna noodles, then 1 cup pasta sauce, 1/2 of cheese mix and 1/2 of vegetables. Repeat the above. Top with remaining noodles and 2 cup sauce.

Cover with al foil and bake for an hour. Remove foil, sprinkle with remaining cheese. Bake uncovered for 10 minutes. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving. Heat the reserved sauce and serve it with lasagna...

Lasagna is a grt dish to make when you have people coming over.With this recipe you get 12 servings, so if you are making it for a small family then you can cover all ur meals for atleast 2 days with one lasagna..Enjoy...
