Ingredients

8 Lasagna Noodles Uncooked
1 Tablespoon Olive Oil Or vegetable oil
1 Garlic Clove Minced
3 cups Broccoli Fresh or frozen
1½ cups Mushrooms About 4 ounces; fresh and sliced
1 Bell Pepper Medium; red, yellow, or orange; chopped
1 Egg
1 container Ricotta Cheese 15 ounces
1 teaspoon Italian Seasoning Dried
1 jar Pasta Sauce 28 ounces; chunky vegetable sauce
2 cups Cheese 8 ounces; shredded

Instructions

Cook lasagna noodles as directed on package. Drain: place in cold water to cool.
Heat oven to 350°F. Heat oil in large skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add garlic, broccoli, mushrooms, and bell pepper; cook 3-4 minutes or until vegetables are crisp-tender, stirring frequently. Remove from heat.
Beat egg in small bowl with wire whisk. Add ricotta cheese and Italian seasoning; mix well.
Drain cooled lasagna noodles. Spread ½ cup of the pasta sauce in an ungreased 9x13-inch baking dish. Top with 4 noodles, overlapping as necessary, half of ricotta mixture, halt of cooked vegetables, half of remaining pasta sauce (about 2¼ cups) and 1 cup of the shredded cheese. Repeat layers, starting with noodles.
Bake for 45-50 minutes or until hot and bubbly. If cheese is getting too brown, cover baking dish loosely with foil. Let stand for 15 minutes before serving.
