Everyone loves lasagna, but making it is a bit of a production. In this recipe, ingredients are layered in a baking dish for an easy weeknight meal that is truly special.
Ingredients
- Cooking spray
- 1 jar (24-ounce) tomato-basil pasta sauce
- 1/2pound part skim-milk ricotta cheese or firm water-packed tofu, crumbled
- 1pound ziti pasta, cooked all dente, rinsed and drained
- 2packages (10-ounce) frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
- 2ounces grated Parmesan cheese
- 8ounces shredded mozzarella cheese
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400F. Coat a 13-by-9-inch baking pan with cooking spray.
- Combine 1/3 of the pasta sauce with ricotta cheese. Stir well.
- Pour half of the remaining sauce into baking pan. Scatter about half the pasta over sauce. Spoon ricotta mixture over it; scatter spinach over top. Add remaining pasta and sauce. Top with cheeses.
- Bake about 20 minutes, until cheese is melted, golden brown and bubbly. Serve at once, spooning out of the pan (don’t attempt neat squares, as with regular lasagna).
