    How to Make Hearty Spinach and Roasted Zucchini Lasagna

    1. Preheat Oven and Roast Zucchini

    Preheat your oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit. Coat the zucchini slices with extra virgin olive oil, season with salt and freshly ground black pepper, and spread them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roast for 8 minutes, flip, and continue roasting for another 5 minutes until tender and lightly browned.

    2. Wilt Spinach

    Steam the spinach over boiling water for about 2-3 minutes until completely wilted but still bright green.

    3. Prepare Ricotta Layer

    Mix the ricotta cheese with one egg, a splash of water, a pinch of cinnamon, and salt and pepper to taste, creating a rich and creamy ricotta mixture.

    4. Assemble Lasagna

    Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. In a rectangular baking pan, layer the no-boil noodles, ricotta mixture, roasted zucchini, wilted spinach, homemade marinara sauce, and freshly grated Parmesan cheese. Repeat until all ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of sauce and cheese on top.

    5. Bake Lasagna

    Cover the pan with foil and bake for 40 minutes. Then remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes until the sauce is bubbly and the cheese is slightly golden.
