- 1 pkg lasagna noodles cook to package directions
Sauce
- 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 cup onion medium diced
- 3 clove garlic minced
- 2 tsp Italian seasoning
- 32 oz canned crushed tomatoes
- 14 oz fire-roasted crushed tomatoes
- 3 tbsp fresh basil chopped
- 1 tsp fresh oregano
- 1 tsp Kosher salt
- 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
Lasagna
- 10 oz frozen spinach
- 2 cup ricotta cheese

- 2 tbsp fresh parsley chopped
- fresh basil to add on top of the lasagna just before broiling
- Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

Instructions
NOODLES
- Cook lasagna noodles according to instructions. Set in cold water to chill
SAUCE
- Add oil to a medium-sized sauté pan. Sauté the onion & garlic in a pan over medium heat for about 5 minutes, until softened & fragrant. Add all the sauce seasoning, herbs, and tomatoes. Cook for an additional 10 minutes
FILLING AND ASSEMBLE
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F with the rack in the middle. Spray a 13" X 9" casserole dish with cooking spray.
- Thaw spinach & press out any water. In a bowl combine the spinach, ricotta cheese, cottage cheese & parsley. Season with some salt & pepper. Set aside.
- Assemble the lasagna: Pour 1/3 of the sauce into the pan. Layer on 5 noodles. Top with 1/3 of the cheese & spinach mixture and 6 oz of mozzarella cheese. Repeat this 2 more times: sauce, noodles, filling, and cheese. You should have a total of 3 layers of sauce, noodles, filling, and cheese.
- Cover the lasagna in foil & bake for 20 minutes. Uncover, add a garnish of fresh basil on top & broil on low for 5 minutes. Cheese should be browned & bubbly.
- Serve hot. This makes great leftovers too! Just let it cool, then store in an airtight container for about 3 days in the fridge.
