- 15 ounces full-fat ricotta cheese
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella (fresh preferred), divided
- 15 ounce can spinach, drained (reserve liquid)

Instructions
- Prepare Coals: Preheat campfire coals until very hot. Once coals are hot, set aside around 15 coals aside for easy access (you'll be setting them on top of your Dutch oven).Add the sausage to the Dutch oven pot and set the pot on the coals. Cook until the sausage browns, and then remove from heat. Scoop the sausage into a bowl.
- Meanwhile, mix ricotta, 1-½ cups mozzarella, spinach, salt, and herb mixture together. Taste and add more seasoning if necessary. Optionally, line the Dutch oven with parchment paper (for easier cleanup).Add ⅓ of the cheese mixture to the bottom of the Dutch oven and spread it out to cover the pot.
- Top cheese with ⅓ of the pasta sauce and ⅓ of the cooked sausage. Add one layer of lasagna noodles. Break noodles as necessary to fit into the round pot. Repeat twice with remaining spinach cheese mixture, pasta sauce, sausage, and noodles (you may have some noodles leftover).
- Pour reserved liquid from spinach can into a measuring cup, and add water until you have ¾ cup of liquid total. Pour liquid into lasagna along the edge. Top mixture with remaining mozzarella cheese.
- Place the lid on the Dutch oven. (If your Dutch oven is not a campfire-style oven with a flat lid, you'll need to set the lid on upside down so it can hold the coals.) Place Dutch oven directly on the main batch of coals. Using tongs, set reserved coals on top of lid, and let it bake for about 25 minutes.
- Next, remove lid, and leave the Dutch oven on the fire uncovered for about 5 more minutes. The excess liquid should boil off. If needed, let it cook a few more minutes until any extra liquid has thickened.
- Remove Dutch oven from heat. Allow lasagna to cool slightly before serving.
