Ingredients

Scale
  • 9 lasagna noodles
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 pound mushrooms (cremini or button), sliced
  • ½ teaspoon dried thyme
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 3 cups marinara sauce
  • 2 cups ricotta cheese
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 cups fresh spinach leaves, chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  2. Cook the lasagna noodles according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  3. In a skillet over medium heat, warm olive oil and sauté chopped onion until softened (about 3–4 minutes). Add minced garlic and cook for another minute.
  4. Stir in sliced mushrooms and thyme; season with salt and pepper. Cook until mushrooms are tender (approximately 8 minutes). Fold in chopped spinach until wilted; remove from heat.
  5. Spread a layer of marinara sauce on the bottom of the baking dish. Layer three noodles, half the ricotta, half the mushroom-spinach mixture, and sprinkle with a third of the mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses. Repeat layers once more.
  6. Finish with remaining noodles topped with marinara sauce and any leftover cheese.
  7. Cover with foil and bake for about 25 minutes; then remove foil to bake an additional 10–15 minutes until golden brown.
  8. Allow to rest for at least 15–20 minutes before slicing.
