Instructions:
-
Preheat Oven: Heat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
-
Prepare Vegetable Mix: In a large skillet, sauté the onions, garlic, and mushrooms in sherry wine (or water) and butter until they become soft and fragrant.
-
Add Greens: Introduce the chopped broccoli, spinach, and dried herb mix to the skillet. Stir to combine all ingredients and then reduce the heat to low. Allow the mixture to simmer for approximately 5 minutes or until the broccoli achieves a tender-crisp texture.
-
Combine Cheesy Mixture: While the vegetable mix is simmering, take a medium-sized bowl and combine the low-fat cottage cheese, part-skim mozzarella cheese, grated parmesan cheese, fresh parsley, egg, black pepper, and salt. Mix well to ensure all ingredients are evenly distributed.
-
Layering: In a 9×13-inch baking pan, spread about 1/2 cup of tomato sauce evenly on the bottom to create a flavorful base for your lasagna.
-
Start Layering: Begin the layering process by arranging 3 lasagna noodles on top of the tomato sauce.
-
Add Cheese: Spread half of the prepared cheese mixture evenly over the layer of noodles.
-
Add Vegetables: Next, distribute half of the vegetable mixture over the cheese layer.
-
More Sauce: Pour 1 cup of tomato sauce over the vegetables, ensuring they are well-covered.
-
Repeat Layers: Repeat the layering process, starting with noodles and alternating between cheese, vegetables, and sauce until all ingredients are used up. Make sure to end with a layer of noodles topped with the remaining 1/2 cup of tomato sauce.
-
Final Touch: Sprinkle the top of the lasagna with additional mozzarella cheese for that irresistible cheesy finish.
-
Bake: Place the assembled lasagna in the preheated oven and bake for 25 minutes or until the cheese is golden and bubbly.
-
Rest Before Serving: Once baked, allow the lasagna to stand for 10 minutes before serving. This will help the flavors to meld together and make for easier slicing.
-
Serve and Enjoy: Slice into generous portions and serve this delectable Vegetable Lasagna to your eagerly awaiting guests. Pair with a fresh green salad and crusty bread for a complete and satisfying meal!
