Budget Friendly - Costs less than $20.00 to make this vegetable lasagna without tomato sauce.

Oven Ready Lasagna - I used Barilla Oven-ready lasagna sheets.They are a great option for making quick and easy lasagna. Unlike traditional lasagna noodles, oven-ready sheets do not require pre-boiling, which saves a significant amount of time and effort. These sheets are also more flexible and easy to handle, making them simpler to layer and assemble in a healthy lasagna dish.

Moreover, they often have a slightly thinner and more delicate texture compared to regular lasagna noodles, which allows them to absorb more sauce and flavors from the other ingredients, resulting in a more delicious and cohesive dish. Overall, oven-ready lasagna sheets are a convenient and tasty alternative for busy cooks who want to enjoy a classic Italian dish without spending too much time in the kitchen.

Alfredo Sauce - Rao's roasted garlic Alfredo sauce works well for this Alfredo spinach lasagna. My second favorite Alfredo sauce is Newman's Own Alfredo sauce.

Chopped Spinach - I used a bag of frozen chopped spinach to make this meatless cheese lasagna recipe. You can certainly use fresh spinach if you have that on hand but the frozen worked perfect, quick and easy!

1: Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly coat a 2 quart rectangular baking dish with cooking spray.

2: Take 2 tablespoons of your store bought Alfredo sauce and spread on the bottom of your baking dish. Then take 3 sheets of your lasagna noodles and layer on top of the sauce.

3: Now that you have your first layer of no bake noodles down, add a tablespoon of Alfredo sauce on top of each noodle and a teaspoon of ricotta cheese, a handful of chopped spinach, shredded mozzarella, a basil leaf and a sprinkle of Italian seasoning. You can then add some additional Alfredo sauce drizzled over the top.

4: Add a layer of noodles on top and repeat the process. I did 3 layers using 12 lasagna sheets in total.

5: When you place your final top layer of your oven ready lasagna noodles in your dish you will add again your Alfredo sauce, ricotta cheese, spinach, shredded mozzarella, basil, Italian seasoning and you will also add a couple of thin slices of mozzarella on top to finish. Once the layering is complete take the remaining Alfredo sauce in your jar add a little bit of water to your jar cover and shake then pour the remaining Alfredo sauce over and around the lasagna in the dish.

6: Cover with aluminum foil. Make sure your spray the underside of the foil with your spray olive oil so it does not stick to the top your lasagna. Place in the oven covered for 50 minutes. Then remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes until golden and crispy on top.

7: Once baking is complete remove from oven, slice and serve...enjoy!!!

Generally, lasagna is cooked covered for the majority of the cooking time, and then uncovered for the last 10-15 minutes to allow the cheese on top to brown and become bubbly. This helps to ensure that the lasagna is cooked evenly and that the cheese on top is melted and golden brown. However, the exact cooking time and method can vary depending on the recipe, so it's always best to follow the instructions provided in the specific recipe you are using.

The number of layers in a lasagna can vary depending on personal preference and the size of the dish you are using. However, a traditional lasagna recipe usually consists of 3-4 layers of pasta, sauce, and cheese. Some recipes may have additional layers, such as vegetables or meat, but generally, 3-4 layers are standard. Ultimately, the number of layers you choose to use will depend on your own personal taste and the size of your baking dish.

Yes, you can freeze homemade lasagna. Lasagna is a great dish to make in advance and freeze for later, as it reheats well and makes for a convenient meal when you're short on time. Note that it's important to ensure that the lasagna is fully cooked before freezing, as partially cooked lasagna may not freeze or reheat well. Additionally, if your lasagna contains ingredients that don't freeze well, such as fresh tomatoes or certain types of cheese, you may want to consider leaving those ingredients out or adjusting the recipe to accommodate freezing.

• Use low-fat ricotta cheese to reduce the overall calorie count of the dish.
• Add sliced mushrooms to the lasagna for extra fiber and flavor.
• Use a mixture of mozzarella and Parmesan cheese for the topping.
• Use a 9x13 inch baking dish for the lasagna.
• Cover the dish with aluminum foil before baking to prevent the top from burning.
• Let the lasagna cool for 10-15 minutes before serving.
• Use a food scale to measure ingredients accurately.
• Use fresh herbs like basil or parsley to garnish the lasagna for added flavor and presentation.
• Use a cheese grater to grate your own cheese instead of buying pre-grated cheese for fresher taste.
• Make sure to evenly spread out the sauce and cheese layers to prevent the lasagna from becoming too dry or too wet.
• Enjoy in moderation and savor every bite!
