INGREDIENTS:
• 3 cups diced sweet potatoes
• 2 cups chopped cauliflower
• 1 teaspoon olive oil
• 2 cups water
• 1 cup Quinta Quinoa
• 1 1/2 cups tomato sauce or prepared pasta sauce
• 1 tub 15oz. part-skim ricotta cheese
• 1 large egg beaten
• 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
• 2 tablespoons minced fresh basil
• 1 tablespoon dried oregano
• 1 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
PREPARATION:
• Heat oven to 350 degrees F. On a large baking sheet, spread sweet potatoes and cauliflower tossed with oil. Roast for 25-30 minutes.
• In the meantime, coat a 9-inch by a 13-inch baking dish with cooking spray. Also, combine water and quinoa in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil. Reduce to simmer, cover and cook for 15 min. Fluff with a fork. Evenly spread the quinoa in the prepared baking dish.
• Combine ricotta cheese and egg in a medium bowl; mix well. Stir in parmesan, basil, and oregano.
• Spread half of the sauce over the quinoa. Make a layer of the roasted veggies, then all the ricotta mixture. Finish with the remaining sauce and spread mozzarella on top.
• Bake the lasagna until it is hot and the cheese is melted, bubbling and slightly browned around the edges, 30-35 minutes. Let stand for about 10 minutes before serving.
