Tips:
- Use fresh spinach for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh spinach, you can use frozen, but be sure to thaw it and squeeze out all the excess water before using.
- Don't overcook the spinach. Spinach cooks quickly, so be careful not to overcook it, or it will become mushy.
- Use a good quality cheese. The cheese is one of the most important ingredients in this lasagna, so be sure to use a good quality cheese that you enjoy.
- Layer the lasagna carefully. Be sure to layer the lasagna carefully so that each layer is evenly distributed.
- Bake the lasagna until it is golden brown and bubbly. This will take about 30 minutes.
- Let the lasagna cool slightly before serving. This will help the lasagna to set and make it easier to slice.
