Notes

Make sure Lasagna noodles are NOT on the topmost layer underneath a tomato sauce layer. Bury the last layer of Lasagna noodles underneath the vegetables. Or break it into pieces and spread on the top layer with tomato sauce. They need to be weighed down by the vegetables, otherwise they don’t get enough moisture and remain uncooked.
