Equipment

  • large saucepan
  • baking dish
  • Pot for boiling noodles

Ingredients
  

  • ½ lb lasagna noodles dried or ready-to-bake
  • 3 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil or butter or ghee if preferred
  • ½ large yellow onion diced
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 lb baby portobello mushrooms sliced
  • Kosher salt to taste
  • black pepper to taste
  • ¼ cup flour
  • 1.75 cups vegetable stock or chicken or turkey stock
  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • 4 cups fresh spinach
  • 1.5 cups shredded parmesan cheese divided
  • 8 oz fresh mozzarella cheese thinly sliced or shredded
  • ¼ cup chopped parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Get the Noodles Ready

  • If using dried lasagna noodles, cook according to package directions in very salty water until 5 minutes less than al dente. Drain and set aside.
  • Lay the noodles out on a lightly oiled baking sheet in a single layer.

Make the Sauce

  • Heat a large saucepan over medium-high heat and drizzle in the olive oil.
  • Add onion and garlic to pan and stir. Cook for 1-2 minutes until onion softens.
  • Add sliced mushrooms and cook for 4-5 minutes until onion is translucent.
  • Add salt and pepper to taste.
  • Add flour and stir to combine. Let cook for 30 seconds.
  • Add vegetable stock little by little, stirring to break up lumps. Bring to a simmer and cook for 8-10 minutes.
  • Add heavy cream and stir. Return to a simmer and cook for another 8-10 minutes until thickened.
  • Turn off the heat, add spinach and ⅔ of the parmesan cheese, stirring until spinach wilts.
  • Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning if needed.

Assemble the Lasagna

  • Heat oven to 375°F.
  • Spread a thin layer of sauce in a medium-sized baking dish. Layer lasagna noodles, sauce, and mozzarella cheese. Repeat until ingredients are used up.
  • Top with remaining mozzarella and parmesan cheese.
  • Bake for 30-40 minutes until cheese has melted and edges are browned.
  • Let cool for 10 minutes before serving. Garnish with parsley.

Notes

This is a great base recipe. Customize with additional proteins or veggies as desired. Can use frozen spinach in place of fresh.
