Meatless Monday: Grilled Vegetable Lasagna

Happy Meatless Monday! We all know it’s sometimes a hassle to get dinner on the table. Wouldn’t it be nice to be able to come home after a long day to a cooked meal waiting in the fridge?  This Grilled Vegetable Lasagna is that meal!  You can definitely dig in the day you make it, but this is also a great dish to prep on Sunday and then just reheat later in the week. This lasagna is a one stop shop filled with nourishing veggies, tender noodles and plenty of gooey cheese. It’s so satisfying you wont even miss the meat. This wholesome dish is made with hearty eggplant and zucchini, which are a perfect match for the noodles, cheese and sauce.  If you have other vegetables on hand, feel free to throw them in – the more veggies the better!   I love that this recipe uses grilled vegetables – the  smoky flavor makes this dish a stand-out among other lasagnas. Hope you and your family love it!   Photo from: http://www.myrecipes.com Grilled Vegetable Lasagna From: www.myrecipes.com Serves 10 Ingredients: 3 eggplants cut lengthwise into 1/4-inch slices (about 3 pounds) 3 zucchini cut lengthwise into 1/8-inch slices (about 1 1/4 pounds) Cooking spray 1 teaspoon salt divided 3/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper divided 2 red bell peppers quartered and seeded 1 (15-ounce) container fat-free ricotta cheese 1 large egg 3/4 cup grated Asiago cheese divided 1/4 cup minced fresh basil 1/4 cup minced fresh parsley 9 lasagna noodles...
