hello everyone,
I'm looking for a great meatless lasagna recipe, I had lasagna years ago at a lovely restaurant, haven't been able to find recipes that turn out into something like I had back then though.

It had a creamy 3-chease sauce, carrots, zucchini, peas, leek and other veggies... it was very thick and pleasing but not too heave.. allthough I usually don't mind heavy sauces.. the meat eaters at my table loved it as well..
Does anyone know a recipe that comes near the one I described. Other great meatless lasagna recipes are also welcome.. but I'm especially looking for something that will create the lasagna I've been fantasizing over all these years :-p

thanks up front!
