    i posted a lasagne recipe. It's in the recipes section (under vegan) which is under "munchies" i think. It's REALLy good lasagne.

    make some dank eggplant parmesain.
    grill up some spicy veggie chillie, dry.
    slightly saute some sliced baby portabellas.
    select a nice romano chees and grade it.
    warm up some dank organic spicy red sauce.
    roast a bit of garlic.
    get your riccota cheese.
    grade some dank mozerella.
    hook up some homemade pasta.
    then go to town with it.
    then bake.
    then bake the lasagna.
    works ever time.

    found this:
    Vegetarian
    3 cups (20 ounce bag frozen) diced,cooked drained vegetables; broccoli, mushrooms, spinach, zucchini, eggplant, bell pepper
    1 onion, chopped OR 1/2 cup celery, chopped
    2 cloves crushed garlic
    1 quart tomato sauce (I like chunky mushroom, olive and caper, or vegetable)
    1-6 oz. can tomato paste
    You may substitute 5 cups of creamy Alfredo style sauce, or half and half: veggie lasagna is good with every other layer red and white.
    salt to taste
    2 tsp. dried Italian spice OR mixed basil and oregano
    1-12 oz. carton ricotta or small curd cottage cheese, or crumbled drained tofu
    2 eggs mixed with 1 tablespoon fruity olive oil
    1 tablespoon dried parsley
    1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
    10-12 oz. lasagna noodles, uncooked
    3 cups (12 oz.) shredded mozzarella cheese

    Cook and drain chopped vegetables, measure out 3 cups, set aside. Brown onion/ celery and garlic in skillet. Stir in alfredo sauce or tomato sauce and tomato paste, salt and Italian spice or oregano. Separately, mix the mozzarella and the Parmesan. In a third bowl, mix ricotta or tofu, eggs, and parsley.

    Crockpot method (6-8 hours on low, don't use high):
    Warm the sauce with the meat or vegetables added. Spoon a layer of warm sauce onto the bottom of an oiled 3 1/2 quart crockpot. Add a double layer of uncooked lasagna noodles (break to fit). Spoon on ricotta in big dabs, sprinkle on 1 cup of mozzarella. Repeat with sauce, noodles and cheeses until all are used up, three layers of noodles, ending with sauce. You may need to add some additional sauce, depending on your crockpot and noodles. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours.

    Freezer-oven method
    Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before baking for best results.
    Line a 9" X 13" pan or 2 square 8" pans with foil long enough to fold over and close after the lasagna is made. Oil or Pam the foil. Use an extra cup of sauce in the preparation of the sauce. Start with the sauce, layer as above, using only a single layer of noodles between layers of sauce and cheese. You should have two or three layers of noodles, no more, and end with sauce. Close the foil, freeze overnight, then remove the foil-wrapped casserole from the pan and seal it in a 2 gallon freezer or ziplock bag. To bake, place the foil-wrapped casserole in an oven dish, thaw overnight in the refrigerator and bake covered at 350* about one hour 10 minutes until bubbling and cheese is well melted. If you want a browned top, unfold the foil cover and sprinkle on a little more Pamesan the last ten minutes of baking.

    Freezer-crockpot method
    Assemble the recipe in a foil-lined one gallon ice cream container and it will fit inside a 5 or 6 quart crockpot. Remove the foil from the frozen pacakage, place it in the crockpot and thaw overnight in the refrigerator before cooking. Cook covered one hour on high, then turn to low for 6-8 hours (automatic setting on most crockpots). If it seems a little juicy, remove the lid and turn to high for the last hour.
