How would you layer this lasagne?

I'm making a lasagne with a creamy courgette and rocket filling. I like a crispy, cheesy top to a lasagne so I'll use béchamel with Parmesan on the top. I want to add a simple garlicky tomato sauce somewhere but I'm not sure where best to add it. A layer on it's own? Or do I run the risk of it mixing with the courgette mixture and go pasta, tomato, courgette stuff and repeat as necessary?

All thoughts welcome! TIA

I think it's essential to have this product tested. I will PM you the address to enable you to comply with the regulations.

I am pleased to report that Dibbler's combination worked a treat and the resulting lasagne was very yummy indeed!

Dibbler - I've adapted a recipe by Gino D'Campo for courgette and rocket cannelloni. http://m.goodfoodchannel.co.uk/recipe/516314/cannelloni-stuffed-with-courgettes-rocket-and-mascarpone/ here I made the courgette mixture as per his recipe and layered it up as you suggested. I made the tomato layer by very slowly frying some red onion and adding a carton of Sainsbury's chopped tomatoes with garlic and olive oil. I simmered it for a bit to thicken it. I served the whole thing with salad and a garlic and rosemary flatbread.

Mmm, ok - that link didn't work! Don't think I can do it from my phone - google the recipe title and it will come up. HTH!
