Stages of cooking
-
Preheat your oven to 180C (350F). In a large saucepan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onion and sauté until softened.
-
Add bell peppers, eggplant, and zucchini to the pan. Cook for about 2 minutes, until the vegetables are slightly tender.
-
Pour the tomato sauce into the pan. Mix well and let it simmer for about 5 minutes.
-
Lower the heat and stir in the spinach leaves and half of the basil leaves. Season with salt and pepper, then set aside.
-
In a baking dish, spread a thin layer of the vegetable sauce. Place half of the lasagna sheets on top, then spread half of the vegan ricotta over them.
-
Repeat this layering process until you've used all ingredients, finishing with a layer of the vegetable sauce on top.
-
Finally, sprinkle the vegan mozzarella cheese over the top.
-
Bake for about 45 minutes, or until the lasagna is bubbly and the cheese is golden.
-
Allow to cool for about 10 minutes before serving. Garnish with the remaining basil leaves and enjoy your delicious Vegan Vegetable Lasagna!
