Healthy Vegetable Lasagna

​This healthy veggie lasagna has approximately 200 calories per slice and is packed with chopped vegetables.

INGREDIENTS

• 12 whole grain lasagna noodles
• 3 cups chopped veggies of your choice (Mixed frozen vegetables are also fine)
• 1 small onion chopped
• 2 green chilli chopped (optional)
• 2 cups fresh spinach chopped
• 3 tablespoons minced garlic
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 cup low fat ricotta cheese
• 1 egg
• 2 cups tomato sauce
• 1 cup skim-milk mozzarella cheese shredded

• Salt and Pepper to taste

 
INSTRUCTIONS

1. Chop the veggies. Sauté the onion and garlic in the oil over medium high heat. Add veggies and sauté until tender. Add salt, pepper, crushed chilli flakes and green chilli. Set aside.
2. Whisk egg into ricotta cheese and stir in fresh spinach.
3. Pour a little sauce in the bottom of a greased 9×13 pan. Top with 4 lasagna noodles,1/2 cup ricotta mixture, 1/2 of the veggies, and 3/4 cup sauce. Repeat; top entire pan with noodles, remaining sauce, and mozzarella cheese.

Side Note: For my veggies, I used mushroom, red / yellow peppers and zucchini.
