Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 pieces Lasagna noodles
- 16 oz Frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
- 15 oz Ricotta cheese
- 4 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 large Egg
- 36 oz Marinara sauce
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Dried Italian seasoning
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Cook the lasagna noodles according to the package instructions, then drain and lay them flat on a baking sheet to prevent sticking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the thawed and drained spinach, ricotta cheese, 2 cups of the shredded mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, egg, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until evenly combined.
Spread 1 cup of marinara sauce evenly over the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Place 3 lasagna noodles over the sauce, slightly overlapping if necessary.
Spread one-third of the spinach and ricotta mixture over the noodles.
Top with 1 cup of marinara sauce and sprinkle 1/2 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese.
Repeat the layers (noodles, spinach mixture, marinara sauce, mozzarella) two more times.
For the final layer, place the last 3 lasagna noodles, spread the remaining marinara sauce on top, and sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of mozzarella cheese evenly over the top.
Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Allow the lasagna to cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
