    I have made this recipe several times now. It is easy and delicious. It makes great leftovers. I roasted the vegetables and it had a nice flavor to the dish.

    Prep time: 25 min.

    INGREDIENTS:

    3. In a bowl, mix together ricotta, 2 cups of mozzarella cheese, and eggs.

    4. Spread 1 cup of tomato sauce in the bottom of a greased 9×13 inch baking dish. Layer 1/2 each, lasagna noodles, ricotta mix, tomato sauce, and Parmesan cheese. Repeat layering, and top with remaining 2 cups mozzarella cheese.

    5. Bake at 350 degrees for 40 min. Let stand before serving. Can be made a day ahead. Bring to room temperature before baking.
