Are you a vegetarian? Noticed that there are not that many options when it comes to vegetarian recipes? If you research hard enough, you just might be surprised to see that there are actually a lot of meatless dishes that you can prepare and enjoy. You can even cook some of these dishes in Italian Style. Take for example this vegetarian lasagna recipe that is simple and tasty.

Step 1

First thing you will want to prepare is the ingredients. For a healthy vegetarian lasagna recipe, you will need 1 fresh eggplant, 1 pack of frozen spinach, 1 pack of lasagna noodles, 1 pack of low-fat cottage cheese, 1 jar of meatless sauce, one pack of mozzarella cheese, salt and pepper, some tomatoes, and parsley flakes. Remember that the mozzarella cheese must be light and as non-fattening as can be. These ingredients can all be found in your local supermarket.

Step 2

Now you need to defrost the spinach. When doing this, chances are that it will be wet and messy but you have to get rid of all the moisture so drain as much water as you can. You can use some kitchen utensils or even dry cloth to help you get rid of the water in the spinach which is needed in the vegetarian lasagna recipe.

Step 3

Next step is to cut the eggplant in round and thin slices. Do not make them too thin but thin enough that they will not be too hard to cook. Then lay the slices on a cloth and lightly salt them. Put another cloth on top of the ones you salted and then repeat the process with the eggplant slices that you have left.

Step 4

Paying attention to cooking this vegetarian lasagna recipe is important. You will need to heat a cookie sheet and on top of that, place a heavy pan to evenly distribute the heat. This is what you will use to cook the lasagna noodles until they are soft enough. To make things easier, you can start mixing the cheese, spinach, pepper and salt in a bowl while the noodles are cooking.

Step 5

This is probably the most difficult part in cooking your vegetarian lasagna recipe. You will need a casserole pan that has sauce spread out evenly inside it. Then add a layer of the lasagna noodles that you just cooked with another layer of eggplant, some sauce, cottage cheese, the mix of spinach that you made, and then top it off with one more layer of lasagna noodles. Do this again until you are satisfied with the thickness of your lasagna.

Step 6

Now for the best part because it’s the easiest. To finalize your pasta, add mozzarella cheese, tomato sauce and some tomato slices. Then add parsley flakes for more flavor and color.

The last step is to bake the dish at 350 degrees for about 45 minutes to an hour. When the eggplant changes its color to something brownish and it starts to get soft, then the dish is ready to be served. This is the simplest and tastiest vegetarian lasagna recipe you can sink your teeth into.
