Creamy Veggie Lasagna

Posted on: March 14, 2012 by:Vanjo Merano | Updated on: October 8, 2018

I get hungry right away when I think of lasagna. Imagine the rich creamy white sauce topped with the different kinds of cheeses — not to mention the flavorful ground beef. Without any doubt, this dish is really awesome. However, there are times when we do not want to eat meat, but still want to have lasagna. It maybe  because we are tired of eating meat, or it might be for religious, or health reasons. This Veggie Lasagna is the answer that we are looking for.

Veggie Lasagna

Broccoli, carrots, and mushrooms are three of the vegetables that I like (I consider mushroom as a vegetable even though it is categorized as a fungus).  They all taste nice and contain a high amount of vitamins that our body needs. In short, they are delicious and healthy. I also like eating vegetables because they are light; I do not feel bloated after consuming the meal. This Veggie Lasagna recipe marries the delicious taste of lasagna and the positive health effects of the vegetables in one plate. We are able to enjoy a delicious meal without the guilt. The good thing about it is we still have a little room for dessert. Isn’t it wonderful?

I also made no-bake lasagna recently. You might want to check it out too.

    Tenho dificuldade de oferecer mais opções de comida aos vegetarianos, esta receita é uma saudável opção de comida vegetariana, que não vegana. A combinação de queijos e legumes é maravilhosa.
