INSTRUCTIONS
Heat oil in a wide frying pan over medium heat. Add onion, garlic,
eggplant, and mushrooms; cook, stirring frequently, for about 15 minutes.
Add tomatoes {break up with a spoon} and their liquid, tomato sauce, wine,
carrot, parsley, oregano, basil, salt, and pepper; bring to a boil. Cover,
reduce heat, and simmer for about 30 minutes. Uncover and continue cooking
until sauce thickens {you should have about 5 cups of sauce}; set aside.
Meanwhile, cook lasagne in boiling salted water according to package
directions. Drain, rinse with cold water, and drain again. Spread about 1/4
of the sauce in a buttered, shallow 3-quart casserole, or 9 x 13-inch
baking dish. Arrange 1/3 of the noodles in an even layer over sauce. Dot
noodles with 1/3 of the ricotta cheese. Distribute 1/3 of the Mozzarella
cheese evenly over the ricotta cheese, then sprinkle with 1/4 of the
Parmesan cheese. Repeat this layering two more times; spread remaining
sauce evenly over top and sprinkle with remaining Parmesan cheese.
Bake, uncovered, in a 350 degree oven, for 40 to 50 minutes, or until
bubbly and heated through. Cut into squares to serve.
