I am looking for good vegetarian recipes.?

I am also looking for a vegetarian lasagna recipe as close to the real stuff as possible. What can I do to make it ';not watery'; Please send any of your best vegetarian recipes.I am looking for good vegetarian recipes.?
The best way to make a lasangna not watery is to not boil the noodles. I use a ';hot cheese'; mixture to pour over the vegetables, tomato sauce and noodles (uncooked). The hot cheese is a combination of milk, ricotta, mozerella and white pepper. I'll look for the recipe and modify my message if I can find it. It really is the best, and easiest veggie lasagne I've had. It's just delicious.I am looking for good vegetarian recipes.?
My husband and I have been eating vegan for three months now. I get my recipes on the following site:

2 medium zucchini


3 medium yellow squash


1/2 green bell pepper


1/2 red bell pepper


2 medium carrots


3 medium sized red potatoes


1 red onion


3 tbsp ricotta cheese


1 box of Barilla lasagna shell (the one that you can cook without boiling)


1 bottle of pasta sauce


Seasoning:


4 tsp crushed red chilli pepper


2 tsp dried chives


2 tsp dried parsley


salt and pepper as needed





Dice all the vegetables. Drizzle some olive oil on them, sprinkle with the seasonings, cover with aluminum foil and bake for an hour at 350 degrees. When the vegetables are cooked, add the ricotta cheese. This will be your lasagna stuffing. Follow directions on the Barilla box for how to assemble the lasagna.





To make it not watery, just add a few bread crumbs to the sauce.
this is the one that I used when I made it for a friend and it came out pretty good

DIRECTIONS:


Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 9 x 13 inch casserole dish.


Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add lasagna noodles and cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until al dente; drain.


Heat oil in a large cast iron skillet over medium heat. When oil is hot add broccoli, carrots, onions, bell peppers, zucchini and garlic. Saute for 7 minutes; set aside.


Place flour in a medium saucepan and gradually whisk in milk until well blended. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Cook 5 minutes, or until thick, stirring constantly. Stir in 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, salt and pepper; cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat; stir in spinach. Reserve 1/2 cup spinach mixture. In a small bowl combine cottage and ricotta cheeses; stir well.


Spread about 1/2 cup of spinach mixture in the bottom of the prepared pan. Layer noodles, ricotta mixture, vegetables, spinach mixture and 2 cups mozzarella cheese, ending with noodles. Top with reserved spinach mixture, 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese and 1/4 cup parmesan cheese.
