14 - 1 tablespoon olive oil
15 - 1/2 teaspoon salt
16 - 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
17 - 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, optional

# Directions:

01 - Preheat oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
02 - Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds. Add asparagus, sugar snap peas, zucchini, and carrots. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes until slightly tender. Stir in spinach and thawed peas; cook for 1 minute. Season with salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Remove from heat and stir in fresh basil.
03 - In a small bowl, combine ricotta cheese with half of the Parmesan cheese.
04 - Spread 1/2 cup of Alfredo sauce on the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
05 - Layer 3 no-boil noodles over the sauce. Top with 1/3 of the ricotta mixture, 1/3 of the vegetable mixture, 1/3 cup mozzarella, and 2/3 cup Alfredo sauce. Repeat layers twice more, finishing with remaining noodles, Alfredo sauce, mozzarella, and Parmesan cheese.
06 - Cover baking dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes.
07 - Remove foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until golden and bubbly.
08 - Let rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Garnish with extra fresh basil and serve.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • The vegetables stay vibrant and slightly crisp, not mushy like in some baked pasta dishes
  • Light Alfredo sauce feels indulgent but wont leave you feeling weighed down
  • No-boil noodles mean one less pot to wash and zero guesswork about texture
02 -
  • The vegetables release water as they bake, so dont worry if your vegetable mixture looks a little dry before layering
  • Covering tightly with foil is crucial for the no-boil noodles to cook through properly
  • Letting the lasagna rest before cutting is the difference between neat slices and a sloppy mess
03 -
  • A squeeze of fresh lemon juice over the vegetables before layering brightens the whole dish
  • If you have time, make your own Alfredo sauce with plenty of fresh nutmeg for extra depth
