HEALTHIER SPINACH LASAGNA WITH MUSHROOMS



Healthier Spinach Lasagna with Mushrooms image

We love this spinach and mushroom lasagna. This keeps incredibly well - it might even be better the next day. To keep things easy, we take advantage of no-boil lasagna noodles. While we were skeptical to use them at first, we've fallen in love with the ease and final texture of the noodles.

Time 1h10m

Yield Makes 8 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium onion, finely diced
8 ounces cremini mushrooms, chopped (about 2 1/2 cups)
1 garlic clove, minced
1 pound fresh spinach leaves, rinsed
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt, or to taste
2 cups part-skim ricotta cheese, can substitute cottage cheese (one 15-ounce container)
2 large eggs, beaten
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 cups marinara sauce, see our homemade marinara sauce recipe (one 24-ounce jar)
12 no-boil lasagna noodles or use regular lasagna noodles that have been cooked
1 1/2 ounces parmesan cheese, shredded (about 1/2 cup)
5 ounces part-skim mozzarella cheese, shredded (about 1 1/4 cups)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350º F. Lightly oil a 13-inch by 9-inch baking dish.
  • Heat olive oil in a large deep skillet over medium heat. Add onions and mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally until onions become translucent, about 10 minutes.
  • Add the garlic, spinach leaves and a 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Cook, stirring as needed, until the spinach is bright green and wilted. (Don't worry about the amount of spinach, it may look like a lot now, but as it cooks, it wilts down considerably. Depending on the size of your skillet, you may want to add the spinach in batches).
  • In a medium bowl, mix ricotta cheese, eggs, a 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and the pepper until well blended.
  • Spread 1 cup of marinara sauce over the bottom of the baking dish. Arrange three noodles lengthwise and side-by-side to cover the bottom.
  • Spread half of the ricotta cheese mixture over the noodles. Sprinkle with a third of the parmesan cheese and a third of the mozzarella cheese. Add half of the spinach mixture and dollop about a 1/2 cup of marinara sauce over the spinach.
  • Add a second layer of noodles then repeat with remaining cheese, spinach and another 1/2 cup of sauce. Finish with a third layer of noodles and top with remaining sauce, parmesan cheese and mozzarella cheese.
  • Loosely cover lasagna with aluminum foil and bake 30 minutes, uncover then bake an additional 10 to 15 minutes until cheese is bubbly and browned around the edges. For a cheesy golden brown top, slide the lasagna uncovered, under the broiler for 1 to 2 minutes.

CREAMY MUSHROOM LASAGNE



Creamy mushroom lasagne image

Let mushrooms take centre stage in this veggie lasagne. A mixture of porcini, chestnut, oyster and shiitake mushrooms makes this rich ragu earthy and deeply savoury

Provided by Good Food team

Categories     Dinner

Time 2h20m

Number Of Ingredients 21

1 tbsp olive oil
400g dried lasagne sheets
200g grated mozzarella or vegan alternative
25g dried porcini mushrooms
800g chestnut mushrooms
2 tbsp olive oil
2 onions, finely chopped
2 carrots, finely chopped
400g mixed mushrooms (we used oyster and shiitake), sliced
4 large garlic cloves, crushed
½ small bunch of thyme, leaves picked
250ml red wine
250ml passata
2 tbsp ketchup
2 tbsp paprika
50g butter or vegan alternative
1 bay leaf
50g plain flour
600ml whole milk or oat milk
3 tbsp crème fraîche or vegan alternative
grating of nutmeg

Steps:

  • For the ragu, put the dried porcini mushrooms in a heatproof mug and cover with 125ml boiling water from the kettle. Set aside. Finely chop the chestnut mushrooms or blitz in a food processor to fine pieces.
  • Heat the oil in a large saucepan or flameproof casserole over a high heat and fry the onions, carrots and chopped chestnut mushrooms with a pinch of salt for 15 mins until the water released by the mushrooms has evaporated, stirring now and then. The mushrooms should be a deep brown colour and the other veg should be soft and slightly coloured.
  • Add the mixed mushrooms, garlic and most of the thyme, and cook for another 5 mins until the mushrooms have started to soften. Drain the rehydrated porcini, add the soaking liquid to the pan, then finely chop the porcini and add that too. Stir in the wine, passata, ketchup and paprika to combine. Simmer for 25 mins until the ragu has reduced and is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Season generously with sea salt flakes and a grinding of black pepper.
  • Meanwhile, make the béchamel. Melt the butter in a saucepan over a medium heat, then add the bay and cook for a minute. Scatter in the flour and stir until you have a sticky paste. Add the milk in stages, whisking between each addition until you have a thick sauce. Reduce the heat to low and cook for 3-4 mins, stirring occasionally until the sauce is thick enough to coat a spoon. Remove the bay, then mix in the crème fraîche, a generous grating of nutmeg and seasoning.
  • Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Rub the olive oil over the base and sides of a large ceramic baking dish (ours was 35 x 20 x 6cm). Arrange a layer of lasagne sheets in the base (you may need to break them so they fit), then spoon over a layer of the mushroom ragu, drizzle with some of the béchamel, and scatter over a handful of the mozzarella. Repeat until you have used all the ragu and the final layer of lasagne sheets, then smooth over a thick layer of béchamel. Sprinkle over the remaining mozzarella and bake for 40-45 mins until the filling is bubbling and the top is golden. Leave to rest for 10 mins, then sprinkle with the remaining thyme leaves before serving.
