A lasagne without mince needs something to fill the gap, and here that is the ricotta. It makes the layers creamy where the tomato sauce alone would only be sharp. Fry the courgette and pepper beforehand so they lose their moisture, otherwise you end up with a puddle in the bottom of the dish.

Preheat the oven to 200 degrees and dice the courgette and pepper.
Soften the onion, fry the vegetables with it and add the passata and herbs.
Let the sauce simmer for 10 minutes until it has thickened.
Fill the dish with layers of sauce, lasagne sheets and ricotta, finishing with sauce.
Scatter with cheese and bake the lasagne golden in 30 minutes.
Aubergine, spinach or roasted squash fit in just as well. A layer of bechamel on top instead of cheese alone makes it more classic. Lasagne is easier to cut the next day than straight from the oven. Either way, let it rest ten minutes before cutting so it does not collapse.
