Instructions
-
Preheat Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). -
Cook Noodles
Boil lasagna noodles according to package directions until al dente (about 8–10 minutes). Drain and set aside. -
Sauté Vegetables
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onion and sauté for 3–4 minutes until translucent. Add garlic and mushrooms; cook for 5–7 minutes until mushrooms are tender and browned. -
Add Spinach
Stir in fresh spinach and cook until wilted (about 2 minutes). Remove from heat and let cool slightly. -
Mix Cheese Filling
In a bowl, combine ricotta, Parmesan, egg, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Stir until smooth and fully combined. -
Assemble Lasagna
In a 9×13-inch baking dish, spread a thin layer of marinara sauce. Add 3 noodles, half of the ricotta mixture, half of the mushroom-spinach mixture, and ⅓ of the mozzarella. Repeat layers. Top with final 3 noodles, remaining sauce, and the rest of the mozzarella. -
Bake
Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove foil and bake another 15–20 minutes until cheese is golden and bubbly. -
Cool and Serve
Let the lasagna rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Notes
- For added flavor, consider mixing in some cooked ground beef or Italian sausage with the mushroom and spinach mixture.
- You can substitute the fresh spinach with frozen spinach; just make sure to thaw and drain it well before using.
