The Perfect Weekend Dish

Kick-off your weekend with this incredible and indulgent veggie lasagne. It's a hearty and satisfying dish that will leave you feeling warm and content.

To start, gather all the ingredients you'll need for this recipe. You'll need lasagne sheets, olive oil, onion, garlic, carrots, celery, red pepper, zucchini, canned tomatoes, tomato puree, vegetable stock, mixed herbs, and mozzarella cheese. These ingredients can easily be found on Amazon.

Begin by preheating your oven to 180 degrees Celsius. In a large pan, heat some olive oil and add the onion and garlic. Cook until softened and then add the carrots, celery, red pepper, and zucchini. Cook for a few minutes until they start to soften.

Next, add the canned tomatoes, tomato puree, vegetable stock, and mixed herbs. Stir well and let the sauce simmer for about 15 minutes, allowing all the flavors to meld together.

In a separate pan, prepare the white sauce by melting butter and adding flour. Stir well and slowly add milk, continuously whisking to avoid lumps. Cook until the sauce thickens and then remove from heat.

Now, it's time to assemble the lasagne. In a baking dish, spread a layer of the vegetable sauce, followed by a layer of lasagne sheets. Repeat this process until all the sauce and sheets are used, finishing with a layer of sauce on top. Pour the white sauce over the lasagne and top with grated mozzarella cheese.

Cover the dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Then, remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is golden and bubbly.

Once the lasagne is cooked, let it cool for a few minutes before serving. Slice into portions and enjoy the deliciousness of this comforting veggie lasagne. It's perfect for sharing with friends and family.
