- 15/16 lbs part-skim ricotta cheese
- grated Pecorino
- Kosher salt and pepper
- 2 cup marinara sauce or Classic Bolognese Sauce
- 6 no-boil lasagna noodles
Prepare
- 4 cup baby spinach, roughly chopped
- 1/4 lbs part-skim mozzarella cheese, coarsely shredded
- 1/2 cup flat-leaf parsley, roughly chopped
Let's Cook
-
Step 1.
Preheat the oven to 425°F.
-
Step 2.
In a bowl, combine the ricotta, ¼ cup of the Pecorino, ¼ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon pepper. Fold in the chopped spinach, all but ½ cup of the shredded mozzarella, and the chopped parsley until evenly mixed.
-
Step 3.
Spread ½ cup of the marinara sauce on the bottom of an 8-inch square baking dish. Place 2 no-boil lasagna noodles over the sauce, then spread about ¼ cup of the remaining sauce over the noodles. Dollop about 1 cup of the ricotta mixture over the sauce. Repeat this layering once more: 2 noodles, ¼ cup sauce, and 1 cup ricotta mixture. Place the remaining 2 noodles on top, spread with the remaining sauce, and dollop with the remaining ricotta mixture.

Step 4.
Sprinkle the remaining ½ cup mozzarella and 2 tablespoons Pecorino over the top. Cover the dish tightly with foil that has been lightly oiled on the underside to prevent sticking. Bake for 15 minutes. Then, uncover and continue baking until the noodles are tender and the top is golden brown, about 8 to 10 minutes more. Let rest for a few minutes before serving.
