# Ingredients You’ll Need:

02 - 1 onion, finely chopped
03 - 3 cloves garlic, minced
04 - 454 g mushrooms (cremini or button), sliced
05 - 2 cups fresh spinach leaves, chopped

06 - ½ teaspoon dried thyme
07 - Salt and black pepper to taste

08 - 2 tablespoons olive oil
09 - 710 ml marinara sauce

→ Cheeses

10 - 2 cups ricotta cheese
11 - 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
12 - ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

→ Garnish

13 - Fresh basil leaves

# How to Make It:

01 - Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with cooking spray or olive oil.
02 - Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add lasagna noodles and cook until al dente. Drain and set aside.
03 - Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chopped onion and cook until translucent, about 3 to 4 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute more.
04 - Add sliced mushrooms, dried thyme, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Cook until mushrooms are tender and moisture has evaporated.
05 - Add chopped spinach leaves to the skillet and cook until wilted, approximately 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat.
06 - Spread a thin layer of marinara sauce on the bottom of the baking dish. Arrange three lasagna noodles over the sauce. Spread half of the ricotta cheese over noodles, then evenly top with half the mushroom and spinach mixture. Sprinkle one-third of mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses. Repeat the layers with remaining noodles, ricotta, mushrooms, and cheeses. Finish with remaining marinara sauce on top.
07 - Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.
08 - Remove foil and continue baking for 10 to 15 minutes until cheese is bubbly and golden brown.

# Extra Tips:

01 - Sautéing vegetables before layering enhances flavor and texture. Prepare the lasagna a day in advance for improved taste and easier slicing.
