Description

A comforting and delectable vegetarian dish combining sautéed mushrooms and fresh spinach between tender lasagna noodles and a creamy, cheesy sauce.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 9 lasagna noodles
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 8 ounce mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 4 cup fresh spinach, chopped
  • 2 cup marinara sauce
  • 15 ounce ricotta cheese
  • 2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Fresh basil leaves for garnish

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F. Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.

2. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the lasagna noodles until al dente. Drain and set aside.

3. In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Sauté the onion until translucent, then add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Next, add the sliced mushrooms, thyme, salt, and pepper. Cook until the mushrooms are tender. Finally, stir in the chopped spinach and cook until wilted. Remove from heat.

4. Spread a thin layer of marinara sauce in the prepared baking dish. Layer three noodles, half the ricotta, half the mushroom mixture, and one-third each of the mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses. Repeat the layers, finishing with sauce and the remaining cheeses.

5. Cover the dish with foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the top is bubbly and golden brown.

6. Allow the lasagna to cool for a few minutes, then garnish with fresh basil leaves and serve warm.

Notes

To avoid a soggy bottom, make sure to cook the lasagna noodles al dente and pat the cooked spinach dry before adding it to the filling.

Leftover lasagna can be stored in the refrigerator for 3-5 days. To reheat, cover with foil and bake at 350°F until heated through.
