Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 9 pieces lasagna noodles
  • 2 cups fresh spinach (washed and chopped)
  • 1 cup mushrooms (sliced)
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 2 cups mozzarella cheese (shredded) Divided
  • ½ cup Parmesan cheese (grated) Divided
  • 1 cup cream
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 medium onion (chopped)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • to taste Salt and pepper

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the lasagna noodles and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  3. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onions and minced garlic, sautéing until they turn translucent. Toss in the sliced mushrooms and cook until they soften, about 5 minutes. Finally, add the chopped spinach and cook until wilted. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat.
  4. In a bowl, combine ricotta cheese, half of the mozzarella, and half of the Parmesan. Mix well and set aside.
  5. In a 9x13-inch baking dish, spread a thin layer of cream on the bottom. Add a layer of lasagna noodles, followed by half of the vegetable mixture. Spread half of the ricotta mixture over the veggies. Repeat the layers, ending with a layer of noodles topped with the remaining cream and cheeses.
  6. Cover the dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes until golden and bubbly.
  7. Allow the lasagna to sit for about 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

For substitutions, you can use different types of greens like kale or add a hint of nutmeg to the cheese mixture for depth. Letting the lasagna rest before serving helps it firm up for easier slicing.
