Easy Spinach Lasagna Recipe

Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
• 2 (10 ounce) packages frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
• 0.5 medium onion, chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, crushed
• 0.5 teaspoon dried oregano
• 0.5 teaspoon dried basil
• 1 (32 ounce) jar spaghetti sauce
• 1.5 cups water
• 2 cups non-fat cottage cheese
• 1 (8 ounce) package part skim mozzarella cheese, shredded
• 0.5 cup chopped fresh parsley
• 0.25 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 large egg
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.13 teaspoon black pepper
• 12 uncooked lasagna noodles

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add spinach, onion, garlic, oregano, and basil; cook until the onion is soft, about 3 to 5 minutes. Pour in spaghetti sauce and water; let it simmer for 20 minutes.
3. In a bowl, combine cottage cheese, mozzarella, parsley, Parmesan, egg, salt, and pepper until well mixed.
4. Take the sauce off the heat; spoon a little into the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking pan. Arrange four uncooked noodles over the sauce, then spread 1/3 of the remaining sauce on top. Layer with four more noodles, 1/2 of the remaining sauce, and 1/2 of the cheese mixture. Repeat these layers once more, using the remaining noodles, sauce, and cheese mixture. Cover the pan with foil.
5. Bake in the preheated oven for 55 minutes. Take off the foil and bake for 15 more minutes, until golden. Let the lasagna rest for 10 minutes before you cut and serve.
