# How To Make It:

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 garlic and sauté for 30 seconds. Add asparagus, snap peas, zucchini, and carrots. Cook for 4–5 minutes until slightly tender. Stir in spinach and 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 tightly with 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 basil and serve.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • The light Alfredo sauce lets spring vegetables shine without overwhelming their delicate flavors
  • No-boil noodles mean this comes together surprisingly fast for a lasagna
  • Leftovers reheat beautifully for lunches that feel special all week
02 -
  • Letting the lasagna rest for 10 minutes is not optional, otherwise the layers slide apart when you slice
  • Squeeze excess moisture from the spinach after wilting or your lasagna may become watery
  • No-boil noodles need direct contact with sauce to cook properly
03 -
  • Grate your own Parmesan cheese instead of buying pre-grated
  • Let the ricotta come to room temperature before mixing for smoother incorporation
