VEGETARIAN SPINACH MUSHROOM LASAGNA!

Preparation time: 30 minutes 

                                                                                    Cooking time: 40 minutes 

Serves 4-6

Ingredients:

6 lasagna sheets

1 bunch of spinach

12 button mushrooms

3-4 cloves of garlic, chopped

3/4 cup of ricotta cheese

3/4 cup of grated mozarella + cheddar (or use pizza cheese)

1.5 cups of canned tomato sauce (use pizza or pasta sauce for a different flavor)

1 of onion, sliced

1 tsp of dried herbs like basil, chives, oregano, or a mix

2 tsp of olive oil

1. Cook the lasagna sheets according to the packet instructions and set aside.

2. Heat the oil and add the sliced onion and garlic.

Saute until soft and then add the mushrooms and spinach.

Add some salt and cook until the water given out by the vegetables

 is absorbed and they are cooked. Set aside.

3.Mix the dried herbs and some salt with the ricotta.

4. Take our your baking tray - you can use metal or glass but I recommend glass. I used my pyrex rectangular baking/storage tray which also has a lid for easy storing later. Add a few drops of oil in the tray and spread evenly. Spread about 1/4 cup tomato sauce at the bottom evenly.

5. Lay two cooked lasagna sheets over the sauce. You may need more or less depending on the size of your lasagna sheets and your tray. It's okay if they overlap a bit but no gaps please.

6. Spread half the ricotta cheese mixture over this evenly

7. Top it off with the cooked mushroom spinach mixture.

8. Lay more lasagana sheets over this. You can add the tomato sauce over the lasagne sheets this time and proceed with the rest of the layers.

9. I did a total of 2 layers, ending with the lasagne sheets. So I spread the remaining tomato sauce over this and added the mozzarella cheddar mixture on top. Thrown in some dried herbs and pepper over this too.

10. Cover the tray with aluminium foil and bake in a 180C / 350F oven for 30 mins. Then, remove the foil and bake for a further 10 mins. The cheese on top will bubble up nicely and the edges will start to curl away slightly from the tray. Remove and let cool down a bit before you slice it. Serve hot.
