Ingredients: – Lasagna noodles. – Carrots. – White onion. – Red bell pepper. – Zucchini. – Broccoli florets. – Shredded kale. – Crushed tomatoes in a can. – Vegetable broth. – Spices such as dried basil, dried oregano, sweet paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and dried thyme. – kosher salt as needed – black pepper as needed – Ricotta cheese. – Dried basil. This is for the ricotta topping.

01

Start with preheating a dutch oven pan over medium-low heat. Add the olive oil and then add the carrots, bell peppers and onion. Season with salt and pepper and let it cook for 7 min until the onion start to sweat. Turn heat down to low.

02

Then add the zucchini and the broccoli. Let it cook for 2 minutes. Pour in the tomato sauce, broth and add the spices. Season it with a dash of salt and pepper. (I like to add the salt in little by little and taste test the broth later before adding the noodles)

03

Bring to a boil then add lasagna noodles to the broth. Turn the heat down to low to let it simmer until noodles are tender. (Use the cook time on the package, usually under 10 minutes for the noodles to be done)

04

Gently stir as the noodles continue to cook. When it’s done, remove from the heat and let it cool for 5 minutes. If using the ricotta topping, mix the cheese with the dried basil and add a dash of salt. (taste test if more salt is needed) Serve immediately when done and top with a dollop of the ricotta mixture. Enjoy!

Pro Tip:You can swap out vegetables or use more of the ones you love or less of the ones you aren’t crazy about. Lentils would be really delicious in this as well! Pasta absorbs all the soup so when reheating, you will need to add more broth.
