Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

  2. 2

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onion and minced garlic, sauté until the onion becomes translucent, about 5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add sliced zucchini, diced bell pepper, and sliced mushrooms to the skillet. Cook for another 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender.

  4. 4

    Stir in the spinach, crushed tomatoes, oregano, basil, salt, and black pepper. Let the mixture simmer for about 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

  5. 5

    In a separate bowl, combine nutritional yeast and almond milk to create a cheesy mixture. Mix well until smooth.

  6. 6

    Spread a thin layer of the vegetable mixture in the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish. Place 3 lasagna noodles on top.

  7. 7

    Spread half of the remaining vegetable mixture over the noodles, followed by half of the cheesy mixture. Repeat the layers, finishing with a layer of noodles topped with the remaining vegetable mixture.

  8. 8

    Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes until the top is bubbly and golden.

  9. 9

    Allow the lasagna to cool for about 10 minutes before slicing. Garnish with fresh basil before serving.
