  • 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tsp extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 elephant garlic clove
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 3 tsp nutritional yeast
  • 1/2 tsp himalayan sea salt

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 450°F.
  • Roughly chop and steam the onion, broccoli, carrots, cauliflower, zucchini, and quartered sweet potato until soft (about 10 minutes) in about 1-1 1/2 inches of water.
  • Add the spinach leaves/frozen peas and finish steaming until the spinach is just wilted (about 3 minutes).
  • While the vegetables are steaming:
  • Pour 1 jar of tomato sauce into a large bowl (with extra room for the ricotta/vegetables)
  • If you are using regular or vegan ricotta puree the ricotta ingredients in a blender then add to the tomato sauce bowl.
  • Puree the steamed vegetables in a blender (use up to 1/4 cup of water from the steamer to blend.)
  • add to the tomato sauce and ricotta bowl.
  • Add a thin layer of tomato sauce on the bottom of your pan.
  • Layer the lasagna noodles so they are overlapping a 1/2 inch for each noodle.
  • Spread a layer of cheese on top of each noodle. Spread a layer of sauce. Layer cooked meat if you are adding meat.
  • Repeat until all of your ingredients are gone
  • Top with cheese and sauce, put foil on the top of the casserole, and put it in the oven!
  • After 1/2 hour, reduce the cooking temperature to 350°F.
  • Cook an additional half hour, then let it rest for 15 minutes before slicing. This helps the layers congeal.
  • Take the 2nd jar of sauce and pour half on top of the lasagna and serve the other half in a bowl for dinner.
  • All done! Enjoy!! Now take a photo, rate it, and share your accomplishments! :) Tag @BlenderBabes & #BlenderBabes
