Description

If Popeye had a favorite lasagna, this would be it. Full of his favorite greens, spinach, it’s packed with a whole lot of flavor and nutrients. And not to mention, it’s super delicious and easy to make.

Ingredients

  • 8 ounces, weight Part-skim Ricotta Cheese
  • 10 ounces, weight Package Frozen Spinach, Defrosted And Drained
  • 1 package Knorr® Cream Of Spinach Soup Mix, 1.8 Ounce Packet
  • 1 whole Egg
  • 1 cup Shredded Asiago Cheese
  • Salt And Pepper, to taste
  • 12 ounces, weight Jar Of Tomato Pasta Sauce, Or Your Favorite Homemade Sauce
  • 10 whole No-cook Lasagna Noodles
  • ½ cups Shredded Mozzarella Cheese

Preparation

1. Preheat oven to 350 F. Begin by mixing together the ricotta, spinach, Knorr® Cream of Spinach Soup mix, egg, asiago cheese, salt and pepper.

2. Then begin layering your ingredients into an 8×10-inch glass baking dish. First lay down a layer of tomato sauce so that the pasta does not dry up. Next add the pasta and layer it so that there are no holes through to the sauce below. On top of the pasta, spread a layer of the spinach mixture and then add a layer of sauce on top of that. Repeat the layers starting with pasta. Do this 3 more times but top the last pasta layer with sauce rather than the spinach mix. Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese on top.

3. Bake in a 350 F oven for 30 minutes or until center is warmed through and cheese has melted. Serve immediately.

4. If you have leftovers, cover the glass baking dish with a lid or plastic wrap and refrigerator till ready to eat. Then either reheat the whole dish in the microwave or slice out individual servings and reheat on a plate in the microwave. Flavors really seem to meld together after a night or two in the refrigerator.

I wasn’t able to follow this recipe exactly because I couldn’t find Knorr’s Cream of Spinach soup mix at my grocery store. I used the vegetable soup mix instead, thinking it would be similar. (It wasn’t). Next time, I would just leave it out; I don’t think it added anything to the flavor. I also nearly doubled the amount of sauce and added an extra egg to the cheese mix (I used medium eggs). Made it in a 9 x 13 because I didn’t have an 8 x 10. Overall, even with the change I made, it turned out well and was healthier than my usual meat sauce lasagna. Plus, the leftovers were great.

I added a cup of broth to the spinach and ricotta mix as it seemed dry. I’m glad that I did because with the no boil noodles it still turned out pretty dry. However, overall the flavors were good. Next time I plan to add more liquid and sauce.
