Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 sheets No-cook lasagna noodles
- 2 cups Jarred marinated artichoke hearts (drained and chopped)
- 4 cups Fresh spinach (chopped)
- 2 cups Ricotta cheese
- 3 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1.5 cups Grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 cups Heavy cream
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves (minced)
- 0.25 cup Fresh parsley (chopped)
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil (for greasing the dish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with olive oil.
In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped artichoke hearts, ricotta cheese, 1 cup of mozzarella cheese, 1 cup of Parmesan cheese, chopped spinach, minced garlic, fresh parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
Spread a thin layer of heavy cream (about 1/4 cup) on the bottom of the prepared baking dish to prevent sticking.
Place 4 no-cook lasagna noodles in a single layer on top of the cream. Break the noodles as necessary to fit the dish.
Spread 1/3 of the ricotta-artichoke mixture over the noodles in an even layer.
Drizzle about 1/3 cup of heavy cream evenly over the ricotta mixture, then sprinkle 1/3 of the remaining mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses on top.
Repeat the layering process (noodles, ricotta mixture, cream, cheeses) two more times, ending with a final sprinkling of mozzarella and Parmesan on top.
Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
After 30 minutes, remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the cheese on top is melted and golden brown.
Remove the lasagna from the oven and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving. Garnish with additional parsley, if desired.
