Popeye's Lasagna image

This is not a white lasagna, you make a tomato sauce to go with it. But it doesn't have meat in the sauce. I've listed mushrooms as optional....it wasn't in the original recipe, but I like to add them to my sauce.

1 cup onion, chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
8 ounces mixed mushrooms, sliced (optional)
1 (28 ounce) can whole tomatoes, undrained and chopped

1/4 cup fresh parsley, minced
1 bay leaf
1/2 teaspoon oregano, dried whole

3/4 cup parmesan cheese, grated, divided
1 egg, beaten
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
