This mouthwatering lasagna is a lazy cook's dream - it uses no-boil lasagna noodles and just 5 ingredients! Prep work is close to zero - this lasagna just cooks itself!
Servings: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 15 no-boil lasagna noodles
- 1 package 5 oz fresh baby spinach
- 1 package 15 oz ricotta cheese
- 1 package 8 oz shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 jar 24 oz pasta sauce
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350F.
- Pour the pasta sauce in a large bowl, add 1 cup of water to it and mix to combine. No-boil lasagna noodles require extra 1 cup of water in the recipe as they cook together with the lasagna and the water gets absorbed.
- Optional - reserve a handful of baby spinach leaves for garnish.
- Pour 1 cup of pasta sauce on the bottom of the 8x12 baking dish and spread to cover the bottom.
- Put 3 lasagna noodles lengthwise side-by-side in a single layer. Put 2 noodles perpendicular on the ends of the baking dish to cover the gaps (you can break them to fit).
- Spread half of the ricotta cheese with a spoon over the noodles.
- Sprinkle 1/3 of the shredded mozzarella cheese over the ricotta.
- Put 1/2 of the baby spinach leaves on top of cheese in a single layer.
- Pour 1/3 of the pasta sauce on top of the spinach.
- Repeat layering another noodle layer, ALL of the remaining ricotta cheese, HALF of the remaining mozzarella cheese, ALL of the remaining spinach and HALF of the remaining pasta sauce.
- For the final layer, layer the lasagna noodles, spread the remaining pasta sauce and sprinkle with remaining mozzarella cheese.
- Cover the baking dish with foil, put in the oven and bake for 45 minutes.
- Optional: after the lasagna is cooked, sprinkle with reserved fresh spinach leaves for garnish.
