Marjy’s Lasagna


Source: Marjy
Time: 1/2 hour for preparation, 1 hour for baking.
 
This recipe needs no pre-boiling of the noodles, because the sauce is watery and it is covered in the oven.
 
Ingredients:
1 onion
2 cloves garlic
2 cans (16 oz) of tomatoes (4-5 fresh tomatoes)
2 tsp of oregano
Carrots, zucchini, mushrooms or all (~4 cups total), grated
15 oz ricotta cheese
1 lb mozzarella cheese, cut into 1/2-inch hunks
1 lb lasagna noodles
 
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. To make the sauce, fry the onion and garlic until the onion is transparent. Add tomatoes, oregano, and vegetables. Cook until hot and blended. In a baking dish, spread a thin layer of sauce on the bottom, then a layer of noodles, and half of each kind of cheese. Spread out a little under half of the remaining sauce, a layer of noodles, and the rest of the cheese. Spread out most of the remaining sauce, reserving some for a layer on top. Place a layer of noodles and the rest of the sauce on the top to prevent the noodles from becoming crisp. A variation on the layering is to put noodles in between every layer. Cover with tin foil and bake for 1 hour.
