Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Italian sausage
- 6 cups baby spinach
- 15 ounces ricotta cheese
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 3 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 cups Alfredo sauce
- 12 sheets lasagna noodles
- 3 cloves garlic
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the lasagna noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the Italian sausage and cook until browned, breaking it into crumbles with a spoon, about 5-7 minutes. Remove excess grease if necessary.
Add minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Stir in the fresh spinach one handful at a time until wilted. Season with salt and black pepper, and remove the skillet from heat.
In a mixing bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, 1/2 cup of grated Parmesan cheese, and 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese.
Spread 1/2 cup of Alfredo sauce evenly across the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Layer 3-4 lasagna noodles over the sauce, slightly overlapping. Top with 1/3 of the sausage-spinach mixture, 1/3 of the ricotta cheese mixture, and 1/2 cup of Alfredo sauce. Repeat the layers two more times, finishing with a final layer of Alfredo sauce on top.
Sprinkle the remaining shredded mozzarella cheese and Parmesan cheese evenly over the top layer.
Cover the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is golden and bubbly.
Let the lasagna rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
