<RecipeText>Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Toss the eggplant, bell peppers, onion & garlic in the olive oil in an ovenproof dish. Roast in the oven for about 25 minute, stirring once about halfway through. Remove & cool. Turn oven down to 350 degrees F.
While the eggplant is roasting, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Partially cook the pasta sheets, about 2-3 minutes, drain & lay out on a plate until ready to use.
Combine the ricotta, chevre & egg into a mixing bowl. Set aside.
Begin with a baking dish - 9X12 or 10X15. Spread about a cup of marinara sauce on the bottom. Place 1/3 of the lasagne sheets on the sauce. Spread all the chevre-ricotta mixture evenly over them & top with the slices of zucchini. Layer another 1/3 of the pasta sheets. Spread the pesto over them & then the eggplant mixture. Finally, layer the last 1/3 of the pasta sheets, then the remainder of the sauce & then the sliced or grated cheese over the top.
Cover with foil & bake for about 45 minutes, then remove the foil & bake for another 15 minutes to finish the top. Let rest for 10 minutes before cutting.
(This dish can be prepared a day in advance & refrigerated unbaked. Be sure to add a good 10-15 minutes to the cooking time, as the lasgne will be very cold inside.)
