1
Preheat the oven to 350F.
-
2
Use a 9 by 13-inch casserole dish.
-
3
Spread a thin layer of pasta sauce on the bottom, and line the bottom of the casserole with 1 layer of lasagna noodles.
-
4
Use as many as needed to line the pan; 3 or 4 should do.
-
5
In a mixing bowl, thin the ricotta cheese with about 1/4 cup water.
-
6
Stir until well blended, then gently and carefully spread one-third of it over the noodles with a cake spatula.
-
7
Spoon an even layer of about one-third of the remaining pasta sauce over the ricotta.
-
8
Sprinkle about one-third of the vegetables over the sauce.
-
9
Follow with about one-third of the mozzarella cheese, then start the layers over again with the noodles.
-
10
Repeat twice, ending with the mozzarella cheese.
-
11
Cover and bake until the noodles are tender (test by piercing through all of the layers with a fork), 35 to 40 minutes.
-
12
If you like, bake uncovered until the cheese begins to turn golden, about 5 minutes more.
-
13
Remove from the oven and let stand for 5 minutes.
-
14
Cut into squares to serve.
-
15
Substitute 1 pound soft tofu, drained and well mashed, for the ricotta cheese.
