Top with remaining ricotta mixture, noodles and vegetable mixture.

Variations & swaps

Vegetable Lasagna Variations

  • Adjust the veggies: In the summer, use eggplant and tomatoes. Celebrate autumn by using pumpkin or butternut squash. In the spring, try leafy greens such as spinach or kale.
  • Change the noodles: Oven-ready noodles are a great way to reduce the number of steps (and cut down on dishes!). These noodles cook by absorbing moisture from the dish as it cooks, so you may want to add an extra splash of water to the sauce. For a gluten-free vegetable lasagna, swap in gluten-free pasta, or use thinly sliced zucchini or eggplant instead of pasta.
  • Make it vegan: Skip the dairy, and make a vegan lasagna with tofu ricotta and dairy-free mozzarella cheese.
