Ingredients

• 9 sheets Lasagna noodles (no-boil)
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 3 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 medium Zucchini, diced
• 4 cups Baby spinach
• 4 cups Marinara sauce
• 2 cups Ricotta cheese
• 2 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
• 0.5 cups Grated Parmesan cheese
• 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 3

Add the diced zucchini to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes until slightly softened. Stir in the baby spinach and cook until wilted, about 2 minutes. Season the vegetables with salt and black pepper.

Step 4

In a medium bowl, mix the ricotta cheese, 1 cup of the shredded mozzarella, Parmesan cheese, and Italian seasoning. Set aside.

Step 5

In a 9x13-inch baking dish, spread 1 cup of marinara sauce evenly on the bottom.

Step 6

Layer 3 sheets of no-boil lasagna noodles over the sauce. Top with 1/3 of the cooked vegetables and spread 1/3 of the ricotta mixture over the vegetables. Pour 1 cup of marinara sauce over the top.

Step 7

Repeat the layering process two more times: noodles, vegetables, ricotta mixture, and marinara sauce.

Step 8

Finish with a layer of noodles, the remaining marinara sauce, and the remaining 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese.

Step 9

Cover the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.

Step 10

Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 11

Remove the lasagna from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.
