Veggie Lasagna

As a birthday treat to myself, I decided to make vegetable lasagna, loosely based off a recipe from BBC GoodFood.

Ingredients (makes 2 pans)
     2 tbsp olive oil
     1 red onion, sliced
     1 large aubergine, sliced flat
     2 courgettes, sliced flat
     3 assorted bell peppers, sliced into strips
     800g chopped tomatos in sauce (from a tin)
     400g lasagne sheets (fresh or half-cooked)
     300g bechamel sauce
     200g mozzarella, grated or sliced thin
     50g parmesan, grated or sliced thin

Before starting: Saute the onion, aubergines, and courgettes separately (if you want to layer it) or together (to save time).

Heat oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4. Grease baking trays with oil.


Place a layer (or several) of vegetables, ladle in tomato sauce. Add a layer of lasagna, then bechamel sauce. Repeat until both pans are full (any excess ingredients can be saved and tossed in a pot with pasta). Top with mozzarella and parmesan.

Bake for 40 minutes.


A sprinkle of parsley really spruces it up
