1. Cook lasagna noodles according to package directions. Drain; set aside.

4. To assemble, in a greased 3-quart rectangular baking dish, layer one-third of the noodles, folding or cutting to fit, if necessary. Spread with one-third of the cottage cheese mixture, then one-third of the vegetable mixture. Sprinkle with one-third of the mozzarella. Repeat the layers twice.

I just put this lasagna in the oven, but I've already noticed that there is not enough sauce. If I like how it tastes, I'll double the sauce. I'm planning a party for a collegue who's a vegetarian and I thought that this would be a good entree. Hopefully it taste good.

Excellent recipe to make ahead! Did add some chicken for a little more flavor, could also use some more seasonings.
