  • In a separate bowl, mix together the ricotta cheese, thawed and drained spinach, and some salt and pepper to taste. Set aside
    salt, 2 cups ricotta cheese, 8 ounces spinach, ground black pepper
  • Once the sauce is done, pour it into the bowl with the prepared pasta and mix it together. Then stir in 1 cup of mozzarella cheese and 1 cup of parmesan cheese.
    2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese, 2 cups grated Parmesan cheese
  • Lightly spray a 13x18-inch (half sheet) sheet pan with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Pour all the lasagna mixture onto the baking sheet and spread it out evenly.
  • Dollop the ricotta mixture all over the top of the lasagna.
  • Then top with the remaining grated mozzarella cheese and parmesan cheese.
  • Bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until the cheese is golden brown and bubbly.
  • Let the lasagna cool for 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Storage Instructions: Let the lasagna cool to room temperature. Then, place it in an airtight container and store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 to 4 days. You can also wrap it well in plastic wrap or aluminum foil and freeze it for up to three months. When ready to eat, or before repeating it in the oven or microwave.
  • This recipe makes a lot!
  • If you LOVE sauce, I would recommend adding an additional cup of pasta sauce to this recipe. It’s not dry without it; I just prefer my lasagna saucy!
  • Feel free to use a full pound of Italian sausage or ground beef instead of a 1/2 pound of each.
