Ingredients

• 2 medium Zucchini
• 1 large Eggplant
• 1 large Red bell pepper
• 1 large Yellow bell pepper
• 6 cups Baby spinach
• 3 tbsp Olive oil
• 4 cloves Minced garlic
• 2 tsp Salt
• 1 tsp Black pepper
• 1 tsp Dried oregano
• 1 tsp Dried basil
• 12 pieces Lasagna noodles
• 2 cups Ricotta cheese
• 3 cups Mozzarella cheese (shredded)
• 1 cup Parmesan cheese (grated)
• 1 large Egg
• 4 cups Marinara sauce

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

Slice the zucchini and eggplant lengthwise into 1/4-inch-thick strips. Chop the red and yellow bell peppers into large pieces.

Step 3

Arrange the zucchini, eggplant, and bell peppers on the prepared baking sheets. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, season with 1 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper, and toss to coat evenly.

Step 4

Roast the vegetables in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until tender and slightly caramelized. Remove from the oven and set aside.

Step 5

Reduce the oven temperature to 375°F (190°C).

Step 6

In a large skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and the minced garlic. Sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 7

Add the baby spinach to the skillet and cook, stirring frequently, until wilted (about 2-3 minutes). Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 8

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, 1 cup of shredded mozzarella, 1/2 cup of grated Parmesan, the egg, 1 teaspoon of dried basil, and 1 teaspoon of dried oregano. Stir until well combined.

Step 9

Cook the lasagna noodles according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside on a clean kitchen towel to prevent sticking.

Step 10

Spread 1 cup of marinara sauce evenly across the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish.

Step 11

Layer 4 lasagna noodles over the sauce. Top with one-third of the ricotta mixture, followed by half of the roasted vegetables, half of the sautéed spinach, 1 cup of marinara sauce, and 1 cup of shredded mozzarella.

Step 12

Repeat the layers: 4 lasagna noodles, one-third of the ricotta mixture, the remaining roasted vegetables, the remaining sautéed spinach, 1 cup of marinara sauce, and 1 cup of shredded mozzarella.

Step 13

Finish with the final 4 lasagna noodles, the remaining ricotta mixture, 1 cup of marinara sauce, the remaining 1 cup of shredded mozzarella, and the remaining 1/2 cup of grated Parmesan.

Step 14

Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven (375°F) for 30 minutes.

Step 15

Remove the foil and bake uncovered for an additional 15-20 minutes, until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.

Step 16

Let the lasagna rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
