Cauliflower And Broccoli Lasagna Recipes

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese, ricotta cheese, mayonnaise, milk, basil, thyme, salt and pepper. Spread 1/4 cup into an 8x4-in. loaf pan coated with cooking spray. , Layer with one noodle, 1/4 cup cheese mixture, 1 cup of the vegetable blend and 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese. Repeat layers. Top with the third noodle and remaining cheese mixture. Sprinkle with mozzarella and remaining Parmesan. , Cover and bake at 400° for 25 minutes. Uncover; bake 10-13 minutes longer or until golden brown and bubbly.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Toss the cauliflower in a bowl with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Spread the florets in an even layer on a baking sheet and roast, tossing once, until tender and golden brown in spots, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool slightly.
• Put the tomatoes in a medium bowl and use your hands to crush them. Rinse the can with 1 1/2 cups water and add it to the bowl of tomatoes.
• Heat the remaining tablespoon of oil with 4 cloves sliced garlic and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a small Dutch oven over medium heat until the garlic begins to sizzle and becomes aromatic, about 2 minutes. Add the bell pepper and cook, stirring, until soft, about 8 minutes. Add the tomato paste and stir to incorporate, about 30 seconds. Add the crushed tomatoes with their juice and 4 large leaves of basil. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is thickened, about 40 minutes. You should have about 3 3/4 cups of sauce.
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Drop the lasagna noodles one at a time into the pot. Cook according to the package directions until al dente. Drain the noodles in a colander. Add 1 to 2 teaspoons oil to the noodles, tossing to coat to prevent them from sticking, and drape over the side of a large bowl.
• Combine the ricotta, egg, 1 1/2 cups of the roasted cauliflower and 1 chopped clove garlic in a food processor and pulse until evenly pureed. Tear the remaining basil into small pieces, add to the food processor and pulse 3 to 4 more times to chop the basil finely, but not puree. Transfer the mixture to a medium bowl.
• Assemble the lasagna: Spread a thin layer of sauce (around 1/4 cup) on the bottom of a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Lay 4 of the noodles on the bottom, without overlapping, cutting to fit, if necessary. Spread with half of the cauliflower-ricotta mixture, followed by half of the roasted cauliflower, one-third of the tomato sauce, one-third of the mozzarella and one-third of the Parmesan. Loosely fit 3 more noodles on top of the cheese without overlapping. Spread with the remaining cauliflower-ricotta mixture, followed by the remaining roasted cauliflower, one-third more of the tomato sauce, one-third more of the mozzarella and one-third more of the Parmesan. Top with the remaining 4 lasagna noodles, cutting just to fit. Then add the remaining tomato sauce, mozzarella and Parmesan. Cover with foil and bake until bubbly and hot, about 20 minutes. Remove the foil and cook until the cheese begins to brown, about 10 minutes more. Allow to rest for 10 minutes so the lasagna will cut more easily. Garnish with the parsley.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°. In a large bowl, combine all ingredients; toss to coat. Transfer to 2 greased 15x10x1-in. baking pans. Roast 15-20 minutes or until tender.

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a large saucepan add onions and garlic and cook over medium heat until translucent- about 5 minutes.
• Add peppers, vegetable stock, tomato puree and chopped tomatoes and bring to the boil.
• Add cauliflower, broccoli, courgette and seasoning bring back to the boil- now cover and reduce heat- allow to simmer gently for 30 minutes.
• Start white sauce approximately 10 minutes before vegetable sauce is ready-melt butter and stir in the flour- cook over a low heat for about 1 minute.
• Increase heat- gradually add milk stirring continually.
• Once sauce has thickened add mustard and half of the grated smoked cheese- stir to mix in the cheese then remove sauce from heat.
• Place 3 sheets of lasagne in a baking dish measuring 9 x 12 inches- pour on half the vegetable sauce then add 2nd layer of lasagne-next add half the white sauce then remaining vegetable sauce-add final layer of lasagne and top with white sauce.
• Sprinkle the parmesan and remaining smoked cheese on top.
• Cook in the centre of a preheated oven at 180°C/350°F/gas 4 for 35 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375°F. Lightly spray a 2-quart casserole dish with cooking spray. Set aside.
• In a medium saucepan, whisk together the sauce ingredients except the Parmesan. Cook over medium-high heat for 4 to 5 minutes, or until the mixture thickens slightly (it will still be somewhat thin), stirring occasionally.
• Stir in the Parmesan. Remove from the heat. Set aside.
• In a medium bowl, stir together the ricotta, egg substitute, oregano, onion powder, and garlic powder. Set aside.
• If using fresh cauliflower and broccoli, in a medium saucepan, bring the water to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium high and cook the cauliflower for 2 minutes. Stir in the broccoli. Cook for 1 minute. Transfer to a colander. Drain well.
• Layer as follows in the casserole dish: half the sauce, 4 noodle halves, all the ricotta mixture, and the cauliflower and broccoli. Sprinkle with the roasted pepper and 1/2 cup mozzarella. Top with the remaining noodle halves, remaining sauce, and remaining 1/2 cup mozzarella. Cover the dish and place on a baking sheet in case the lasagna bubbles over.
• Bake for 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, stir together the topping ingredients. When the lasagna has baked for 30 minutes, sprinkle with the topping. Bake, uncovered, for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the topping is toasted and the noodles are tender. Remove from the oven and let stand for 5 to 10 minutes to make cutting easier.
