Ingredients

1 eggplant (1 lb ), peeled and cut into 1/4-inch slices

1/2 lb Fresh mushrooms, cut into 1/4-inch slices

3 Small zucchini, cut lengthwise into 1/4-inch slices

2 Sweet red peppers, cut lengthwise into 6 pieces

3 tbsp Olive oil

1 Garlic clove, minced

1 tsp Salt

1/2 tsp Pepper

1 Carton (15 oz) reduced-fat ricotta cheese

1/4 cup Grated Parmesan cheese

1/4 cup Egg substitute

1 jar (26 oz) chunky meatless pasta sauce

12 No-cook lasagna noodles

2 cups (8 oz) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese

3 tbsp Minced fresh basil

Preparation

Coat two 15x10x1 inch baking pans with nonstick cooking spray. Place eggplant and mushrooms on a prepared pan. Place the zucchini and red pepper on the second pan. Combine the oil and garlic; brush over both sides of vegetables. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake, uncovered, at 400 for 15 minutes. Turn vegetables over. Bake 15 minutes longer. Remove eggplant and mushrooms. Bake zucchini and red pepper 5-10 minutes longer or until edges are browned.

In a bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, Parmesan cheese and egg substitute. Spread about 1/4 cup pasta sauce in a 13x9x2 inch baking dish coated with nonstick cooking spray. Layer with four lasagna noodles (noodles will overlap slightly), half of ricotta cheese mixture, half of vegetables, a third of pasta sauce and 2/3 cup mozzarella cheese. Sprinkle with half of basil. Repeat layers. Top with the remaining noodles and pasta sauce.

Cover and bake at 350 for 40 minutes. Uncover; sprinkle with remaining cheese. Bake 5-10 minutes longer or until edges are bubbly and cheese is melted. Let stand for 10 minutes before cutting.
