Notes
Please don't get hung up on how the layers are placed. The main thing to remember is that all noodles should be completely covered with liquid so they will cook and not be hard.
Most any vegetables of choice will work with this recipe. Try squash, carrots, eggplant, onions, peppers and even mushrooms.
