A delicious and creamy lasagna filled with spinach, mushrooms, and a blend of cheeses, perfect for a comforting meal.
Ingredients
Scale
- 12 lasagna noodles
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
- 10 ounces fresh spinach
- 15 ounces ricotta cheese
- 1 egg
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 3 cups marinara sauce
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Cook the lasagna noodles according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until translucent. Stir in the minced garlic and sliced mushrooms, cooking for another 5-7 minutes until the mushrooms are tender.
- Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Season with salt, pepper, oregano, and basil. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, egg, and half of the grated Parmesan cheese. Mix until smooth and well combined.
- To assemble the lasagna, spread a thin layer of marinara sauce on the bottom of a 9×13 inch baking dish. Place 3 lasagna noodles over the sauce. Spread half of the ricotta mixture over the noodles, followed by half of the spinach and mushroom mixture, and a third of the mozzarella cheese. Repeat the layers, starting with the noodles, then the ricotta mixture, spinach and mushrooms, and mozzarella cheese.
- Top the final layer of noodles with the remaining marinara sauce, the rest of the mozzarella cheese, and the remaining Parmesan cheese.
- Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
- Allow the lasagna to cool for about 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Notes
- For a heartier version, add cooked ground beef or Italian sausage to the mushroom and spinach mixture.
- Substitute the marinara sauce with a homemade white sauce or Alfredo sauce for a creamy twist.
