When I first starting blogging I had posted a Lasagna recipe, that was given to my mom from a good Italian friend she had in the States. Today, I am posting another Lasagna recipe, but not with meat but with SPINACHHHHH yummm.

I went to our local supermarket to check out the fresh tomatoes they had but I have to be honest, the tomatoes were not looking to good. The truth is tomatoes are not in season, so I guess this is why they were looking a bit funky. So, this time my sauce is store bought, works just as good, and the lasagna tasted just as delicious.

I am hoping to start my own veggie garden towards the end of next month. Hoorayy!! I have already decided which seeds I would like to plant, and I hoping to be able to purchase my off-ground box. 🙂 I found the perfect spot in the garden so that if we have a snow/thunderstorm/hail or any kind of storm it won’t break it like it did last time. This off- ground box will be much smaller than the previous, starting small just to be on the safe side.

I hope you enjoy this recipe, let me know how it comes out if you decide to make it!!!! 🙂

Ingredients

6 servings
  1. 750grams. Ricotta Cheese
  2. 5 tablespoonsOlive Oil
  3. 2Garlic cloves diced
  4. 3 cupsshredded Mozzarella
  5. 400 gramsSpinach
  6. 1medium size Egg
  7. 2 tablespoonsLemon juice
  8. 1 teaspoonSalt
  9. 1 teaspoonPepper
  10. 2packaged of Lasagna noodles
  11. Nutmeg (optional)
  12. 2 tablespoonsOregano

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Wash Spinach, drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    In a large bowl add the ricotta cheese, salt, pepper, lemon juice, and egg. Combine all ingredients and set aside.

  3. 3

    In a large sauce pan, add the olive oil, garlic and oregano, mix together on low heat for 15 minutes and until garlic has soften.

  4. 4

    Add into the pan the Spinach that was set aside and mix, sauté spinach until wilted.

  5. 5

    Add the Spinach into the ricotta mix.

  6. 6

    I prefer to use the spinach leaf as is, but you can always chop to make it into a smaller size.

  7. 7

    In a deep baking pan add the sauce, store bought or home made. (If you want a lovely Italian sauce go back to the “The Old Italian Lasagna Recipe” which I had posted a few months ago). Layer with noodles. 🙂

  8. 8

    Then add the ricotta mix.

  9. 9

    Top with sauce and mozzarella cheese and repeat the step until all is done. I usually use aluminum foil to cover the baking dish, so that the cheese won’t burn quickly. Bake for 1 hour and medium heat, and until noodles have been thoroughly baked. Once taken out of the oven let the lasagna cool for about 20 minutes before eating. Kali Orexi!!! 🙂
