Description

A simple and fun way to make lasagna.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound Lasagna Noodles
  • 1 package (10 Oz. Package) Frozen Chopped Spinach, Thawed
  • 16 ounces, weight Ricotta Cheese
  • 2 cups Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
  • 2 Tablespoons Grated Parmesan Cheese
  • 1 teaspoon Kosher Salt, Plus More For The Pasta Water
  • ½ teaspoons Ground Black Pepper
  • 4 cups Pasta Sauce

Preparation

In a large stock pot, bring water and some salt to a boil for the lasagna noodles.

Take spinach and squeeze out all the liquid. Set to the side.

In a large bowl, add the ricotta, parmesan, 1 1/2 cups of the shredded mozzarella, salt, pepper, and spinach and stir well. Set to the side.

Boil the lasagna noodles for no more than 6 to 7 minutes. You want them to be slightly firmer than al dente since you will be baking this once you roll them up.

In a 13″ x 9″ baking dish, place about 1 cup of sauce on the bottom and spread to evenly coat.

Drain the lasagna noodles in a colander and run some cool water through them to stop the cooking process and make them easier to work with.

Lay out a few lasagna noodles and add about 2 tablespoons of the cheese/spinach filling and spread out along each noodle. Then roll up and place seam side down in the baking dish. The 1-lb. box of noodles usually comes with about 20 noodles, and I always end up with just enough filling to fill 19 of them. Drives me nuts, but no matter what I do, that’s how it works out.

Once you have them all stacked up evenly in the dish, cover them with about 1 1/2 cups of sauce and cover with foil. Bake in a 350-degree oven for about 40 minutes. After the 40 minutes, remove the foil, sprinkle with the 1/2 cup of reserved shredded mozzarella cheese and pop back in the oven for another 10 to 15 minutes.

Remove from the oven, allow to set for a couple of minutes and serve with some extra grated parmesan cheese.

Use the extra sauce you had left over to top each serving.

This was so easy to make and great. I love lasagna, but I don’t like making it. I halved the recipe and had just enough rolls for my family. My husband is picky about spinach and even he liked it.

I didn’t have any ricotta on hand, so I substituted cottage cheese, and I cooked up some fresh spinach leaves instead of using frozen. Yummy!
