- 2 finely chopped garlic cloves
- 2 medium carrots, finely chopped
- 1 cup of cooked green lentils
- 3 cups of chopped sweet potato
- 3 cups of chopped tomatoes

- Now you can add the chopped tomatoes, the passata, and some water, and lower the heat.
- Season again with salt and pepper and add some fresh basil.

Notes
- Add additional basil, marinara or passata sauce, and lasagna pasta as needed. May need to use up to 1lb box of lasagna pasta.
- To save time: You may find pre-peeled and chopped sweet potato (or butternut squash/pumpkin) and carrot pieces in the grocery store. If frozen, thaw them entirely first.
- Use no-boil lasagna sheets: Otherwise, you need to cook them before adding them to the lentil lasagna.
- Leave it to rest after baking: This gives the vegan lasagna time to thicken up/ set slightly, making it easier to slice and serve.
