Let the vegetables do the talking with this wholesome vegetarian lasagna and even your meat-loving guests will be fighting for seconds after tasting these mouthwatering layers of comforting goodness.
Turn this traditional Italian casserole into a veggie-packed taste sensation by layering sheets of lentil lasagna, homemade tomato sauce (marinara), cheese and creamy white sauce with broccoli and mushroom filling. The tomato sauce is made from scratch with basic ingredients and only takes a few minutes.
And feel free to play around with your vegetables. You can mix it up and modify the recipe to include any of your family’s favourites: Corn, butternut, spinach, diced zucchini and red bell peppers make for tasty alternatives. The “meaty” flavour of baby portabello mushrooms will lend a hearty texture to this vegetarian lasagna although any variety of mushroom can be used.
If you really want, you can add beef mince and make it a more traditional lasagna with the added veg. However, to be quite frank it is an overkill and unnecessary.
To get the best results, you must talk to your vegetables. — Prince Charles
CHEF’S TIP:
Lasagna makes great leftovers. You can keep this lasagna in the refrigerator for at most five days. Warm-up slices in the microwave, or reheat the entire lasagna (covered with foil) in the oven until the cheese is bubbly.
