Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • 13 x 9 inch baking dish

Ingredients
  

  • 12 ounces oven-ready lasagna noodles
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 6 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 sweet onion diced
  • 1 lb mushrooms chopped
  • 4 cups low sodium tomato sauce my recipe is linked in the notes below!
  • 8 ounces low salt ricotta cheese
  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup fresh parsley
  • 2 cups chopped spinach I used frozen
  • 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
  • 6 ounces fresh mozzarella packed in water drained and rinsed

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • In a sauce pan, heat the olive oil on low.  Add the garlic and onions, and sauté for 6 to 7 minutes until they begin to soften.  Add the mushrooms and sauté for an additional 5 minutes with the lid on.  Stir in the tomato sauce, and allow too gently simmer on the stove for 15 minutes.
  • In a large bowl, add the low salt ricotta cheese, egg, parsley, spinach, and Italian seasonings.  Stir to mix all ingredients together.
  • Cut fresh mozzarella in half, or break apart fresh sliced mozzarella into 1/2 inch pieces.
  • Grease a large 13x9 baking dish, and begin to layer the ingredients.  A scoop of tomato sauce on the bottom, layer of oven-ready lasagna noodles, layer of ricotta spinach mixture, and another layer of sauce.  After the first layer of noodles, add in half of the diced mozzarella, save the other half for the top. Continue to layer in this order (sauce, noodles, ricotta) until the dish is full (I had 3 layers in mine).
  • Top with remaining mozzarella, and cover with foil.
  • Bake for about 35-40  minutes until cheese melts on top and the sauce is bubbling up on the sides.
  • Remove from oven, slice, and enjoy!
