Equipment

  • large skillet
  • mixing bowl
  • 9×13 inch baking dish

Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, finely diced
  • 2.5 cups cremini mushrooms, chopped
  • 1 clove garlic, finely grated or minced
  • 10 cups fresh spinach leaves about 1 pound (450g)
  • 15 ounces ricotta cheese about 2 cups (425g)
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • 24 ounces pasta sauce or 3 cups homemade marinara sauce
  • 12 sheets no-boil oven-ready lasagna noodles or cooked traditional lasagna noodles
  • 0.5 cup finely grated parmesan cheese about 1 ounce (26g)
  • 1.25 cups grated mozzarella cheese about 5 ounces (140g)
  • 0.75 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with a small amount of oil.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onions and mushrooms, cooking until onions are translucent, about 10 minutes. Add garlic, spinach leaves, and ¼ teaspoon of salt, cooking until spinach is bright green and wilted.
  • In a medium bowl, combine ricotta cheese, eggs, ½ teaspoon of salt, and ¼ teaspoon of pepper until well blended.
  • Spread 1 cup of pasta sauce over the bottom of the baking dish. Arrange three noodles to cover the bottom. Spread half of the ricotta mixture over the noodles. Sprinkle with one-third of the parmesan and one-third of the mozzarella. Add half of the spinach mixture, then top with about ½ cup of marinara sauce. Add a second layer of noodles and repeat with remaining ingredients. Finish with a third layer of noodles and top with the remaining sauce, parmesan, and mozzarella.
  • Loosely cover the lasagna with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes. Uncover and bake an additional 10 to 15 minutes until cheese is bubbly and browned. For a golden-brown top, broil for 1 to 2 minutes. Let sit for 5 to 10 minutes to set before serving.

Notes

Frozen spinach can be substituted. Leftovers last up to 3 days in the fridge or up to 3 months in the freezer. Can be assembled ahead of time and stored in the fridge for up to 2 days.
