• Add the spinach leaves/frozen peas and finish steaming until the spinach is just wilted (about 3 minutes).
• While the vegetables are steaming:
• Pour 1 jar of tomato sauce into a large bowl (with extra room for the ricotta/vegetables)
• If you are using regular or vegan ricotta puree the ricotta ingredients in a blender then add to the tomato sauce bowl.
• Puree the steamed vegetables in a blender (use up to 1/4 cup of water from the steamer to blend.)
• add to the tomato sauce and ricotta bowl.
• Add a thin layer of tomato sauce on the bottom of your pan.
• Layer the lasagna noodles so they are overlapping a 1/2 inch for each noodle.
• Spread a layer of cheese on top of each noodle. Spread a layer of sauce. Layer cooked meat if you are adding meat.
• Repeat until all of your ingredients are gone
• Top with cheese and sauce, put foil on the top of the casserole, and put it in the oven!
• After 1/2 hour, reduce the cooking temperature to 350°F.
• Cook an additional half hour, then let it rest for 15 minutes before slicing. This helps the layers congeal.

HEALTH BENEFITS OF BROCCOLI

Broccoli belongs to a family of vegetables called cruciferous vegetables with its close relatives including brussel sprouts, cauliflower, and cabbage.
It is an all-star food packed with many vitamins and minerals translating to many health benefits. Here are a few:

Vitamin C – builds collagen, which forms body tissue and bone, and helps cuts and wounds heal. Vitamin C is also a powerful antioxidant that protects the body from damaging free radicals.

A cooked cup of broccoli offers as much vitamin C as an orange!

Vitamin K – is essential for the functioning of many proteins involved in blood clotting.

Fiber – Diets high in fiber promote digestive health and they can also help lower cholesterol.

Potassium – is a mineral and electrolyte that is essential for the function of nerves and heart contraction.

Folate – is necessary for the production and maintenance of new cells in the body.
