INSTRUCTIONS
Serves 8 to 10. Mixed colors of bell peppers make this a stunning main
dish. Heat Sherry in 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
Add onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft but not
browned, 5 minutes. Add peppers and mushrooms and cook until mushrooms
lose their liquid, 5 minutes. Stir in basil. Remove from heat. Puree
ricotta and cottage cheeses in blender or food processor. To assemble,
spoon 1 cup of pasta sauce in bottom of 9-by 13-inch baking pan coated
with nonstick vegetable spray. Top with layer of uncooked noodles, 1/3
of vegetables, then 1/3 of cheese mixture. Repeat until all
ingredients are used up, ending with pasta sauce. In small bowl, stir
together Parmesan cheese and bread crumbs and sprinkle over lasagna.
Cover with foil and refrigerate overnight. Bake at 350 degrees for 1
hour. Remove foil and bake until lightly browned and bubbling, about
15 to 20 minutes longer. Calories 350, Carbohydrates 61 g, Protein 14
