    03 Method
    • Step 1
      Preheat oven to 400°F. Coat 2 large baking sheets with cooking spray.
    • Step 2
      Arrange eggplant and zucchini in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets. Roast until tender, about 20 minutes.
    • Step 3
      Meanwhile, cook sausage in a large saucepan, crumbling it with a spoon, until browned, about 6 minutes. Add onion and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes. Add tomatoes, wine, basil and oregano and cook, stirring occasionally, until bubbling. Lower heat and simmer for 10 minutes.
    • Step 4
      Combine ricotta, egg and pepper in a small bowl.
    • Step 5
      Spread about 1 cup sauce in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Top with a layer of half the eggplant. Dollop on about ⅓ cup ricotta mixture and sprinkle with ¼ cup mozzarella. Layer on half the zucchini, crosswise to the eggplant layer, then top with 1 cup sauce, dollop on ⅓ cup ricotta mixture and sprinkle with ¼ cup mozzarella. Layer on the remaining eggplant and top with 1 cup sauce, dollop on the remaining ricotta mixture and sprinkle with ¼ cup mozzarella. Layer on the remaining zucchini and top with the remaining sauce and mozzarella.
    • Step 6
      Bake the lasagna until the sauce is bubbling around the edges, about 30 minutes. Let stand for 10 to 20 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh basil, if desired.
