Ingredients

• 12 sheets lasagna noodles
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 medium onion, finely chopped
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 medium zucchini, thinly sliced
• 2 cups broccoli florets, chopped
• 2 cups mushrooms, thinly sliced
• 4 cups baby spinach
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 4 cups milk
• 1 cup parmesan cheese, grated
• 2 cups ricotta cheese
• 2 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded
• 3 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
• 2 teaspoons salt
• 1 teaspoon ground black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Cook the lasagna noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.

Step 3

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic, and sauté until fragrant, about 2 minutes.

Step 4

Add the zucchini, broccoli florets, and mushrooms. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables soften. Add the spinach and cook for an additional 2 minutes until wilted. Season the mixture with 1 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of pepper. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 5

In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes until golden. Gradually whisk in the milk, making sure no lumps remain. Cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens, about 5 minutes. Stir in the parmesan cheese and season with 1 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of pepper.

Step 6

Spread 1/2 cup of the white sauce over the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish. Lay 3-4 cooked lasagna noodles over the sauce.

Step 7

Spread 1/3 of the vegetable mixture over the noodles. Dollop 1/3 of the ricotta cheese on top, followed by 1/3 of the shredded mozzarella. Pour 1/3 of the remaining white sauce over the cheeses.

Step 8

Repeat this layering process twice more, ending with a layer of mozzarella and white sauce on top.

Step 9

Cover the baking dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.

Step 10

Garnish with fresh parsley before serving. Let the lasagna cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
