Instructions
- All ingredients ready? Let's begin!
- If you’re going to bake the lasagna immediately, start by preheating your oven to 350⁰F (180⁰C).
- Grease or spray a deep casserole dish with non-stick spray.
- Make the sweet potato cheese sauce by folding the sweet potato puree, ricotta cheese, and cottage cheese with a spatula. Set aside.
- Move on to the tomato sauce. Finely dice the onion, mince the garlic, and roughly chop the spinach.
- Heat your olive oil in a heavy frying pan. Add the onion and cook for 5 minutes.
- Add your chopped spinach and minced garlic to the pan and cook for another 2 minutes.
- Pour in the marinara sauce. Heat to a simmer. Simmer for 2-3 minutes.
- Assemble your lasagna by layering ½ cup tomato sauce, cover with lasagna sheets, and adding ½ cup cheese sauce.
- You may have to break the lasagna sheets to fit your casserole dish.
- Repeat the layers until you have used all the sauce.
- Bake for 25 minutes. Remove the sweet potato lasagna from the oven and top with mozzarella cheese.
- Put the thoroughly cheesy lasagna back in the oven for another 10 minutes until the cheese has melted and turned golden brown and bubbly.
- Allow the lasagna to stand for 10-30 minutes before serving so that the layers can set and not slide apart as you cut into them.
- Garnish with freshly chopped basil before serving.
