This “veggie-licious“ alternative to traditional lasagna makes use of slow-cooker convenience. “I suggest using chunky spaghetti sauce,“ notes Laura Davister of Little Suamico, Wisconsin.

I wish all of you had actually made this recipe and reviewed it instead of talking about "veggie" this and "vegan" that. I'd like to make it and I want to know if it's a good recipe.

I can't believe some of the nit-picking over semantics involving a vegetarian vs. vegan fued. As a born-and-raised vegetarian (who goes strictly Macrobiotic every so often to purify my system), I've never been inclined to think my way is the ONLY way to eat. Moreover, some of you act like this is a dietary supremecy contest...dividing yourselves over an egg or freakin' cheese. This is America folks...where we have a bountiful supply of food...and the freedom to eat whatever we want...without being judged. Those of you doing the judging so pompously..take off the judges robe and step down from the bench with the rest of us. Now, lets all get back to why we are here...good food!

 I think you could easily use an egg substitute.  I have been a vegetarian for over twenty years.  I don't think the title of this recipe is misleading, though.  Not sure about the vegan "egg" comment.  It doesn't say "vegan" lasagna.  It says "veggie".  What I get upset about is when a recipe is listed in the "vegetarian" part of the cookbook and it includes chicken broth.  Or anchovies. That is just wrong.  This recipe sounds great!  I will definitely give it a try.

As a vegetarian for 19 1/2 years, eggs are definitely part of a vegetarian diet. There are not eggs, however,as part of a vegan diet, a diet that uses no animal products at all. Trust me, vegans have enough of their own trusted recipes not to be wandering around other, nonvegan sites.

Just use an egg substitute, if you don't want the egg.

Really not "veggie" if you include an egg -- thinking it could be made without -- just me tho --
