Preparation:
1. Preheat the oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Cook the lasagna noodles
Cook the lasagna noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
3. Prepare the vegetable and tuna filling
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and garlic, and sauté until fragrant.
Add the diced carrots, zucchini, bell peppers, and mushrooms to the skillet. Cook until the vegetables are tender.
Stir in the drained tuna, crushed tomatoes, tomato sauce, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Let the mixture simmer for 5-10 minutes.
4. Assemble the lasagna
Spread a layer of the vegetable and tuna filling on the bottom of a baking dish.
Layer lasagna noodles on top of the filling, followed by a sprinkle of mozzarella cheese and Parmesan cheese.
Repeat the layers until all the ingredients are used up, finishing with a layer of cheese on top.
5. Bake the lasagna
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
Remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
6. Serve and enjoy
Remove the lasagna from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
Sprinkle MAMBO seasoning on top for an extra burst of flavor.
