12 lasagna noodles, cooked and drained
1 medium onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
4 cups marinara sauce
1 teaspoon dried oregano
2 (15 ounce) containers ricotta cheese
1 egg, beaten
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese, divided
2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

Steps:

In a skillet, cook sausage, onion and garlic until pork is no longer pink and onion is tender; drain. Add marinara sauce and oregano; simmer for 5 minutes. In a bowl, combine ricotta cheese, egg, 1/4 cup Parmesan and spinach.

Sprinkle with 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese. Repeat process 3 times. Top with remaining Parmesan cheese. Bake, uncovered, at 350 degrees F for 40 to 45 minutes. Let stand for 10 minutes before cutting.
