Holidays are around the corner. If you are gathering a big crowd at your house this year, I’m sure you are thinking of options what to feed everyone, so that each and everyone of your guests is satisfied with their tummies full or fighting for more servings.

I always go with my easy vegetarian lasagna with spinach and ricotta cheese. This hearty, filling main dish is always talked about at other dinners and I can’t help but blush and say, Stop it, Please! (Even though I don’t want them to! 🙂 )

Easy Vegetarian Lasagna with Spinach and Ricotta recipes

 

I am in love with this dish because I love all kinds of cheeses that can be used in this recipe. You can add your favorite veggies also. I make it with different variety of vegetables every chance I get. I sometimes use mushrooms, sometimes green pepper. This time I was out of mushroom, so I used green peppers instead.

 

I love using red onion for most of my dishes, mainly because of the purple color it gets when it is being sauted. For veggie lasagna, you only need to saute it for 2 – 3 minutes, making sure that it is tender.

 

Add chopped garlic cloves and green pepper to the mix. You will love the aroma of this shallow frying veggies.

 

At this point, you have boiled spinach. Drained and chopped it. You have combined ricotta cheese, spinach, Romano cheese,  oregano, basil leaves, salt, pepper and egg. You have also added green pepper mixture.

 

This is what it looks like when you mix all the ingredients thoroughly with a wooden spatula.

Take a baking dish, this one is 8x8inch. At the bottom of the baking dish, lay 4 lasagna noodles. If you are taking 9x15inch baking dish, you can use 5 or so lasagna noodles. Spread 1/3 of cheese and spinach mixture over the lasagna noodles. Take 1/3 of the mozzarella cheese and sprinkle evenly on the cheese spinach mixture. Spread 1 cup pasta sauce over the cheese. Repeat the steps above for 2 more layers.

 

Cover with aluminum foil. Bake for 50 -55 minutes in a preheated oven. Let it cool for 15 – 20 minutes. This is what you get when you take the aluminum foil off. Look at each layer. Each bite of this vegetarian lasagna is so delicious!
