Sausage and Spinach Lasagna
Report
This layered sausage and spinach lasagna makes a huge casserole to feed a crowd. There's a few moving parts, so I like to spread out assembly over several days.

Ingredients
- 1 recipe sausage and mushroom ragout
- 1 package lasagna noodles either the kind which require boiling first or the ready-to-use variety
- 2½ cups cottage cheese or ricotta cheee
- 1 egg
- ¼ cup chopped fresh parsley
- 2 cups freshly grated Parmesan cheese divided
- 10 ounces frozen chopped spinach I wrap it in a clean dish towel and use all my strength to ring out the liquid over the kitchen sink, completely thawed and all excess moisture squeezed out
- 4 cups grated part skim mozzarella

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- In a medium bowl add cottage cheese, egg, 1 cup of the parmesan cheese and the parsley. Stir to combine.
- In a 13x9 ceramic or glass baking dish, add a half cup of sauce and using a spoon or spatula, spread it thinly over the bottom of the dish.
Layer the lasagna as follows
- Arrange about 5 pasta noodles on top of that so that they cover the bottom of the dish.
- Spread a quarter of the ragout over the pasta
- Spread about one half of the cottage cheese mixture evenly over the noodles.
- Spread 1 cup of mozzarella over the cottage cheese mixture.
- Top with half of the spinach.
- Repeat the layering: pasta, ragout, cottage cheese, mozzarella, spinach.
- Top with pasta noodles (if using pre-cooked noodles, tuck the ends down into the side of the casserole - you won't have that option with ready-to-use noodles) Top with remaining ragout and mozzarella cheese. Sprinkle evenly with the remaining parmesan cheese.
- Bake for 30-40 minutes, until cheese is melty and crust turns golden.
- Serve.
Notes
- The prep time listed is 25 minutes -- this is assuming that you've already made the ragout.
