Vegetarian Lasagna
Veggies: Saute' spinach (chopped), zucchini and yellow squash (sliced), 3 or more chopped cloves of garlic, chopped onion (if desired), green and red bell peppers (diced or sliced thin, as many as you want), 1-2 stalks celery (sliced or chopped), mushrooms (sliced) in extra-virgin olive oil.
Add to your sauce of choice, unless you want to make your own. Jarred sauce freezes just as well. With all the veggies, your sauce should be rich and thick.
Cook your lasagna noodles - set aside.
Simply layer your noodles with sauce (with veggies added) and cheese - repeat till you have a full pan for the oven. Bake @350 till slightly browned on the top.
Cool.
Cut into single-sized servings or family-sized servings. Freeze in a ziplock, but make sure the air is out of the bag and it can sit flat in the freezer. You can place the bags in a foil pan or even a box till frozen. Take out whenever you feel like it and defrost and reheat for about 15 minutes in a 350 oven, or microwave if you'd rather. You might want to take a day to do this or make the veggie-sauce one day and put it together the next day.
Good luck! I make and freeze a lot of things and it "is" easier!
