Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Gather your ingredients while the oven heats up.
  2. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onion and minced garlic. Sauté for about 3-5 minutes.
  3. Stir in diced red and yellow bell peppers, zucchini, yellow squash, and sliced mushrooms. Cook for 5-7 minutes.
  4. Add spinach to the skillet, stirring until it wilts, about 2 minutes. Season with salt, pepper, oregano, and basil. Set aside.
  5. Combine ricotta cheese, large egg, and Parmesan cheese in a mixing bowl. Mix until smooth and creamy.
  6. Spread a thin layer of Alfredo sauce on the bottom of the baking dish.
  7. Layer lasagna noodles over the sauce, then add half of the ricotta mixture, sautéed vegetables, and mozzarella cheese.
  8. Repeat layers with noodles, remaining ricotta mixture, vegetables, and another cup of mozzarella.
  9. Pour remaining Alfredo sauce over the top layer of noodles and sprinkle the rest of the mozzarella cheese.
  10. Cover the dish with foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes.
  11. Let the lasagna rest for about 10 minutes before slicing.
