- Preheat oven to 350F.
- Cook lasagna noodles following packaged directions. In a colander, drain and run under cold water until cool to the touch.
- Complete steps 3-9 while noodles cook. (Optional to skip this step and add uncooked pasta in Step 10).
- Rinse greens, mushrooms, and zucchini. Peel garlic.
- Grate mozzarella cheese. Set aside 1/4 cup grated cheese for topping lasagna.
- In a medium bowl, add spinach, mushrooms, and zucchini. Stir in 1/4 tsp of the salt. Set over a colander to drain. When completely drained, pat veggies dry with paper towels.
- Stir garlic, basil, oregano, remaining 1/4 tsp salt and black pepper into canned tomatoes to make the sauce. Mix in can.
- In a medium bowl, crack egg and beat with a fork. Add cheeses and mix.
- Lightly coat a 9-by-13 inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray. Spread 1/2 cup tomato sauce in bottom of the dish.
- Layer 3 noodles over sauce. Then layer 1 cup cheese mixture, 1.5 cups veggies, and 2/3 cup tomato sauce. Repeat layers 2 more times, ending with noodles. Cover with remaining sauce and reserved cheese.
- Bake until cheese is melted and lightly browned on top and lasagna is bubbly, about 45 minutes. Remove from oven. Let cool 10 minutes before cutting.
