Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 sheets lasagna noodles
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 medium, sliced zucchini
- 2 medium, sliced yellow squash
- 1 large, diced red bell pepper
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 3 cups baby spinach
- 2 cups ricotta cheese
- 3 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 3 cups prepared Alfredo sauce
- 3 cloves minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish lightly with olive oil or non-stick spray and set aside.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the lasagna noodles according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and lay flat on parchment paper to prevent sticking.
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the zucchini, yellow squash, red bell pepper, and broccoli florets. Sauté for 7-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender but not mushy. Add the minced garlic and baby spinach and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the spinach wilts. Season with Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a medium bowl, mix the ricotta cheese with 1 cup of shredded mozzarella and 1/2 cup of grated Parmesan cheese.
Spread 1/2 cup of Alfredo sauce evenly over the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
Layer 4 lasagna noodles over the sauce, slightly overlapping each noodle. Spread 1/3 of the ricotta mixture over the noodles. Then spread 1/3 of the sautéed vegetable mixture followed by 3/4 cup of Alfredo sauce. Sprinkle 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese over the top.
Repeat the layers two more times: noodles, ricotta mixture, vegetables, Alfredo sauce, and mozzarella cheese. For the final layer, top with lasagna noodles, the remaining Alfredo sauce, 1 cup of mozzarella cheese, and 1/2 cup of grated Parmesan cheese.
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil, ensuring it is tightly sealed to retain moisture. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
After 30 minutes, remove the foil and bake for an additional 20 minutes or until the cheese is golden and bubbly.
Let the lasagna rest for about 10 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy your Vegetable Lasagna Alfredo!
