Ingredients You'll Need
Gather these simple ingredients to create your tasty meatless lasagna:
- 9 lasagna noodles
- 2 cups of ricotta cheese
- 3 cups of spinach (fresh or thawed from frozen)
- 4 cups of marinara sauce
- 2 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup of grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon of Italian seasoning
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions to Create Your Lasagna
Follow these easy steps to whip up your Simple Meatless Lasagna:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Cook the lasagna noodles according to package instructions, then drain and set aside.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, spinach, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all the ingredients are incorporated.
- In a 9x13 inch baking dish, spread a thin layer of marinara sauce on the bottom. This will prevent the noodles from sticking.
- Layer three lasagna noodles on top of the sauce. Spread half of the ricotta mixture over the noodles, followed by a third of the marinara sauce and a layer of mozzarella cheese.
- Repeat layers, placing three more noodles, the remaining ricotta mixture, and another third of the marinara sauce with mozzarella cheese on top.
- Finish by topping the last three noodles with the remaining marinara sauce, the remaining mozzarella cheese, and the grated Parmesan cheese.
- Cover the dish with aluminum foil, ensuring it’s not touching the cheese, and bake for 25 minutes.
- After 25 minutes, remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
- Let it cool for a few minutes before slicing, and enjoy your healthy, satisfying meal!
