Description

Indulge in a creamy, veggie-packed Vegetable Lasagna featuring the sweet and savory flavors of roasted sweet potato, butternut squash, and a tangy cranberry glaze.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 lasagna noodles
  • 2 cups ricotta cheese
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 cups diced sweet potato
  • 2 cups diced butternut squash
  • 1 cup chopped spinach
  • 1 jar (12 oz) cranberry sauce or cranberry glaze
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F.
  2. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook lasagna noodles according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, mix together the ricotta, 1 cup of the mozzarella, and Parmesan cheeses. Season with salt and pepper.
  4. In a separate bowl, toss the diced sweet potato and butternut squash with the olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.
  5. Spread a thin layer of the cranberry sauce or glaze in the bottom of a 9×13 inch baking dish.
  6. Layer 4 lasagna noodles in the dish. Top with half of the cheese mixture, half of the roasted vegetables, and 1/3 of the remaining cranberry sauce.
  7. Repeat the layers of noodles, cheese, vegetables, and cranberry sauce.
  8. Top with the remaining 4 lasagna noodles and the remaining cranberry sauce.
  9. Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove foil, sprinkle with the remaining 1 cup of mozzarella cheese, and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  10. Let the lasagna cool for 10 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh spinach leaves, if desired.
