Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 sheets Lasagna noodles
- 8 cups Fresh spinach
- 2 cups Feta cheese
- 2 cups Mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 0.5 cups Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1.5 cups Ricotta cheese
- 2 large Eggs
- 4 cups Marinara sauce
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 4 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 4 cups Water
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Bring a large pot of salted water to boil. Cook the lasagna noodles according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and lay them flat on a clean kitchen towel to prevent sticking.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and sauté until wilted, about 3-4 minutes. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, eggs, 1 cup of feta cheese, 1 cup of shredded mozzarella, and the sautéed spinach. Add the oregano, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper. Stir until evenly combined.
Spread 1 cup of marinara sauce evenly over the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Place a single layer of lasagna noodles on top of the marinara sauce.
Spread 1/3 of the spinach and cheese mixture over the noodles, followed by 1 cup of marinara sauce. Sprinkle with a mixture of mozzarella and feta cheese.
Repeat the layering process (noodles, spinach mixture, marinara, cheeses) two more times, finishing with a final layer of noodles, marinara sauce, and the remaining mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses.
Cover the lasagna tightly with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
Remove the foil and continue baking uncovered for an additional 20 minutes, or until the cheese on top is golden and bubbly.
Remove the lasagna from the oven and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
