Method
 

  1. Pre-heat oven to 400° Fahrenheit

  3. Optional. In a pan, heat oil until hot. Add onion and cook for 1-2 minutes. Add garlic and cook for an additional minute. Add mushrooms and spinach and cook until soft. Add into the ricotta mixture.
  4. In a 9 by 13 pan, place a layer of tomato sauce to cover the base of the pan. Then add a layer of lasagna noodles (feel free to break apart the noodles to get better coverage), Then add a layer of the ricotta mixture.
  5. Repeat until the layers (ending on a noodle layer) fills up ¾ of the pan. Add one last layer of sauce and sprinkle the remaining parmesan and mozzarella on top.
  6. Bake for 30 minutes, the top should be a golden brown. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

The optional layer can be filled with any types of vegetables that suit your fancy! I have also used bell peppers, broccoli, and zucchini. You can also add cooked ground meat but then it wouldn’t be vegetarian.
