Stove Top Vegetable Lasagna

Quick and easy to make in just 30 minutes, Stove Top Vegetable Lasagna is a one pot dinner that is hearty and comforting.

Stove Top Vegetable LasagnaStove Top Vegetable Lasagna is one of those recipes giving you a bit of a break on those busy days.  A one pot easy dinner, which is ready to eat in 30 minutes, and is so delicious, it is amazing.

Stove Top Vegetable Lasagna

Full of veggies, like sweet bell pepper, red onion, and mushroom…this has become one of our favourite pasta dishes. Feel free to add any other veg that you prefer, like zucchini.

I used vegetarian sausage in place of the zucchini and it was an absolute hit. Everybody absolutely loved it. I probably need to get a bigger skillet just so that I can double this recipe.

Making the Stovetop Lasagna

It is really easy. The vegetables are cooked with seasoning and herbs until tender, which takes about 5 to 10 minutes. Then the uncooked lasagna sheets/ noodles are roughly broken up into large pieces and placed over the vegetables.

A jar of store-bought pasta sauce ( I love using the one with olives in it ) and a can of chopped tomatoes are poured over the lasagna sheets/noodles. Just make sure that all the sheets/noodles are well covered with the sauce to prevent it from drying out. 

It is then covered and cooked on low to medium heat until the lasagna sheets/ noodles are softened, you can just poke around in the edge of the pan to check if it has softened. 

It should be done in about 20 minutes.

Ricotta cheese is then gently stirred into the tomato layer. Just swirl it around the top layer, do not disturb or push around the lasagna sheets /noodles. Here is a great recipe for homemade ricotta cheese

Topped with fresh mozzarella, grated parmesan and sweet basil leaves, dinner is ready to be served?

Quick and easy to make in just 30 minutes, Stove Top Vegetable Lasagna is a one pot dinner that is hearty and comforting.

I hope that you will fall in love with this delicious and easy twist on the classic lasagna dish as much as we have!!!

Enjoy ♄

    stovetop lasagna sounds like such a good idea! i don’t always like turning the oven on, and it feels like it takes so long for things to cook in the oven sometimes, so stovetop lasagna sounds perfect (:

    Hahaha! I was just thinking how I’m still in holiday mode and having to get out of bed this morning to live my life was painful. . .I just want to wear pajamas and drink tea all day. Is that too much to ask? I’m LOVING this lasagna. Whether I’m feeling lazy or not, one-pot dinners are always a good thing. Have a great weekend, Ashika!

      Haha !Isn’t it crazy what the holidays do to us.. I think that one extra week to wear pajamas and drink tea is all day is fine because we have the rest of the year stress to put up with?
      So true …one pot dinners are always great. Have a great week Kelsie šŸ™‚

    I love vegetable lasagna but I’ve never tried preparing one at home. Thanks to your awesome recipe, I am now motivated to give it a try. What kind of oil do you use for this recipe?

      Thank you so much Agness, I am so glad that you like the recipe and I hope that you get a chance to try it out soon šŸ™‚
      I usually use canola , sunflower or olive oil. You could use any one of these three, because it has a neutral flavour and does not affect the taste of the lasagna.
