Notes

My Notes
1. Orgeno, basil and other italian seasoning can be used separetly. Italian seasoning I used had all that, so I didn't add separately
2. Any regular/whole wheat pasta such as Penne, rotini, Fettuccini etc. can be used
3. I pan cooked the veggies, altervatively vegetables can be oven cooked. Preheat the oven to 400 degree F and veggies can be cooked for 15 - 20 minutes, turning in between
4. Parmesan cheese can be used instead of goat cheese, as we dont eat parmesan i used goat cheese
5. White sauce can be prepared and added to the dish while layering. For milk, all- purpose-flour sauce refer White sauce pasta. For heavy cream version refer Mac and Cheese
6. Eggplant, corn, spinach, cabbage etc can also be added
7. Regular onion can also be used instead of spring onion
