-
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius).
-
In a large skillet over medium heat, sauté the chopped onions, minced garlic, sliced mushrooms, chopped carrots, and diced green peppers until they are soft and tender, about 8-10 minutes.
-
Add the tomatoes, parsley flakes, basil, oregano, chili, rosemary, and black pepper to the skillet.
-
Simmer the sauce mixture for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, to allow the flavors to meld together.
-
In a separate bowl, mix together the mozzarella cheese, cottage cheese, and grated Romano cheese until well combined.
-
In an 8 x 12 inch casserole dish, spread a thin layer of the vegetable sauce on the bottom.
-
Layer 4 of the cooked lasagna noodles over the sauce, then spread half of the cheese mixture over the noodles.
-
Spoon half of the remaining sauce over the cheese, then top with the remaining 4 lasagna noodles.
-
Spread the remaining cheese mixture over the top layer of noodles, then cover with the remaining sauce.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
-
Let the lasagna rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
