# How to Make It:
01 - Preheat oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.

03 - In a small bowl, combine ricotta cheese with half of the Parmesan cheese.
04 - Spread 1/2 cup of Alfredo sauce on the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
05 - Layer 3 no-boil noodles over the sauce. Top with 1/3 of the ricotta mixture, 1/3 of the vegetable mixture, 1/3 cup mozzarella, and 2/3 cup Alfredo sauce. Repeat layers twice more, finishing with remaining noodles, Alfredo sauce, mozzarella, and Parmesan cheese.
06 - Cover tightly with foil and bake for 30 minutes.
07 - Remove foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until golden and bubbly.
08 - Let rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Garnish with extra basil and serve.
