2 cup diced onion
1 tablespoon chopped garlic
1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
1 cup diced red bell pepper
2 cup sliced zucchini
2 cups sliced mushrooms
¼ cup shredded carrot
1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes

½ tablespoon salt

2 (16 ounce) containers LACTAID® Cottage Cheese

- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F

- Spray a 15-inch by 10-inch baking dish with vegetable spray and lay out approximately 5 of the lasagna noodles, or as many will fit across the baking dish.
- Ladle ½ of the LACTAID® Cottage Cheese on top and spread evenly. Sprinkle ⅓ of the shredded mozzarella on top. Dollop ⅓ of the sauce on top and spread evenly.
- Place approximately 5 more lasagna noodles on top and repeat the previous steps.
- Place the last 5 lasagna noodles on top and spread the last ⅓ of the sauce and sprinkle with mozzarella.
- Wrap the baking sheet with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes.
- Take off foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes.
