Ingredients for vegetable lasagna:

  • 12 lasagna sheets
  • 1 zucchini
  • 1 eggplant
  • 1 red bell pepper
  • 1 yellow bell pepper
  • 2 ripe tomatoes
  • Onion
  • Garlic

How to make Italian lasagna

  1. Prepare the vegetables: Wash and carefully chop the vegetables and cook them for about 10 minutes in a pan with a drizzle of oil. Cook until softened, then season with salt and pepper to taste.
  2. Prepare the béchamel sauce: In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat and add the flour, stirring until thick. Gradually add the milk and stir well to avoid lumps. Continue cooking for 5-7 minutes, then add salt and a pinch of nutmeg.
  3. Assemble the lasagna: If using lasagna sheets, cook them in boiling salted water for about 2-3 minutes. In a baking dish, spread a thin layer of béchamel sauce on the bottom, then add a layer of lasagna sheets and some cooked vegetables. Repeat the process, starting with the béchamel sauce, for 3-4 layers.
  4. Before cooking the lasagna: Sprinkle the last layer of your lasagna with Parmigiano Reggiano.
  5. Cook the lasagna: Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F), cover the pan with aluminum foil, and bake your vegetable lasagna for about 30 minutes. Remove the foil toward the end of cooking and bake for 10-15 minutes until golden brown.
