VEGGIE LASAGNA
Okay, so this is a veggie lazy lasagna–but you could omit any veggie you don’t like & replace it with your favorite.
I LOOOOOVE Target’s Good & Gather Brand Butternut Squash pasta sauce. I think it’s just genius & my kids gobble it up in this dish. So, win-win.
But, as with the veggies & the ravioli, you could sub in any sauce you want.
One of the things I love most about this dish is that you could make this dish once a week & change the ingredients out each time. Veggie lazy lasagna, Stromboli lazy lasagna, pizza lazy lasagna, etc.
No one in your fam would get sick of it!
HOW TO AVOID A WATERY VEGGIE LASAGNA
Let me go ahead and warn you about ONE THING.
Veggie lasagnas can get watery. This may or may not be a problem depending on the time you have for the lasagna to sit after cooking.
In this video, I was making it on the fly, so I didn’t wait for it to cool.
It can get a little watery due to the spinach if you dive on in. But, if you’re making it and it sits for an hour the liquid will soak into the noodles completely.
If you want to avoid any watery-ness, then there’s a simple solution: pop your veggies in the microwave for 1 minute to let them steam it out.
Easy. Done.
