COOKING LIGHT'S SPINACH LASAGNA
This is from Nov 1997, and my standard recipe when I'm craving Lasagna. The whole family loves it, and I love that I can sneak in other veggies. :) I always double the recipe and freeze the second one.

Steps:
- Heat the EVOO in a saucepot and add the butter. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Add the tomatoes and crush them up a bit. Add the passata, a fat handful of torn basil leaves, the onion and some salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer and simmer for 40 to 45 minutes. Remove the onion and set the sauce aside.
- Separate the spinach while adding it to a mixing bowl. Add half of the mozzarella, the ricotta, 1 1/2 cups of the Parmigiano-Reggiano and the eggs yolks and mix to combine. Season with grated nutmeg, salt and pepper.
- Layer a little sauce into a lasagna pan and top with three flat lasagna sheets or four curly. Top with a little more sauce, and then half of the spinach and cheese mixture. Repeat with another layer, and end on top with lasagna sheets. Top with some sauce and the remaining mozzarella and Parmigiano-Reggiano.
- The lasagna can be stored before or after baking for a make-ahead meal, or baked to serve immediately. When baking the first time, bake at 375 degrees F, uncovered, from room temperature until cooked through and brown and bubbling on top, 60 to 70 minutes. If reheating, bake at 375 degrees F, covered, for 40 to 45 minutes.
- Let the lasagna rest 20 minutes before cutting. Serve with extra sauce on the side.
SPINACH LASAGNA
A very nice alternative to heavy meat lasagnas. Be sure to let it rest for a while before serving (or make it the day before) to let it set up; otherwise it will fall apart on you.

SPINACH LASAGNA
My husbands favorite food. My mother-in-law gave me the recipe when we got married so that my husband wouldn't be without it. You can really put things in any order. Sometimes I put in a layer of the mozzarella in the middle. Sometimes I add sliced mushrooms or soy fake meat. The real secret is the more sauce and cheese, the better.

Steps:
- Cover the bottom of a rectangle pan with sauce (just enough to cover.) I use the large deep foil pan. It is best to use a pan deep enough to leave room at the top, so that foil doesn't touch the lasagne and get stuck on the cheese.
- Put a layer of lasagna noodles (uncooked)--kind of overlap them. I usually overlap 4 to fit across the pan.
- Now put a layer of ricotta cheese. Spread thinly across the noodles.
- Pour on sauce.
- Then spinach and more sauce.
- Repeat: Noodles, ricotta, sauce, spinach, sauce. Noodles, ricotta, sauce, spinach, sauce.
- End with noodles.
- Pour sauce over.
- Then really end with grated mozzarella.
- Cover pan tightly with foil, put in oven at 350 degrees and cook about 1 hour and 15 minutes.
- Serve with a salad and some french bread (whole wheat is best!) and you have a great meal.
LIGHT LASAGNA
From Cooking Light a long time ago. I lost my hard drive and want to save this for the future. I make this for my family and friends and they don't know it's light. The original recipe called for non fat cottage cheese and non fat ricotta, but I use low fat and part skim, they taste better to me. I also use the oven ready lasagna noodles, which weren't in existence back then. Trust me, you'll never miss the mozzerella cheese, the provolone is so much more flavorful.

TURKEY SPINACH LASAGNA
This is an amalgamation of some different Cooking Light recipes using what I had on hand one evening, which turned out to be even better the next day. Best of all, you don't have to cook the lasagna noodles first! Feel free to adjust, such as replacing water with chicken broth, adding more ground turkey, using whole wheat noodles, etc. Also, I am a slow cook, so it may take less than 30 minutes for you to prep. (Warning: 9 WW pts per 1/8 of pan because I hate most fat-free versions of cheeses)

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a bowl, combine the 2 cups mozzarella, 2 cups ricotta, basil, pepper, and egg whites (you can use egg substitute or a whole egg if you prefer -- I used 100% all egg whites from a carton) and set aside.
- Spray non-stick skillet (I use cast iron) with oil and saute minced garlic until brown.
- Add diced onion and saute until browned or translucent.
- Add ground turkey and saute until browned, being careful to separate the meat into crumbled bits or they will clump into large chunks.
- Add spinach and saute briefly, stirring to combine all ingredients.
- Add spaghetti sauce and water and stir. (I used the 1/2 cup of water I squeezed out of the spinach as part of the 1-1/2 cups, and I filled the empty jar of Whole Food Foods organic fat-free pasta sauce with the other cup of water to get every last bit of sauce out.)
- Bring to a boil, cover, reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes. (Cover to retain the moisture which you will need for the unbaked noodles later.).
- In a 13 x 9 nonstick baking pan, spread about 1 cup of the turkey spinach mixture over the bottom, being sure to cover all of the bottom to prevent the noddles from sticking. Use a little more sauce if necessary.
- Spread 3 lasagna noodles over the mixture, leaving a little space between each noodle for it to expand during cooking. (If you don't, you will wind up having little "hills" along the seams, like mine.).
- Top noodles with 1-1/2 cups turkey spinach mixture, covering all of the dry noodles, and then top the sauce with half of the cheese mixture.
- Cover with noodles, and repeat until ending with a turkey sauce layer. (I wound up with 3 layers of noodles, and some extra cheese sauce, which I dotted around the edges.).
- Cover with foil and cook in oven for 50 minutes. (If you use no-boil, oven-ready lasagna noodles, you can probably cut out at least 15 minutes of baking time.).
- Take out, uncover, and sprinkle last cup of mozzarella over top.
- Bake for another 10 minutes (or longer if you like your cheese brown and crunchy -- in which case, feel free to shorten the covered baking time correspondingly).
- Remove from oven and let rest 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees, with racks in middle and upper third. Divide leeks between two rimmed baking sheets. Toss each with 1 tablespoon oil and season with salt and pepper. Bake until tender, 20 minutes, stirring leeks and rotating sheets halfway through. Let sheets cool on wire racks.
- Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high. Add spinach and cook, stirring occasionally, 4 minutes. Add red pepper, parsley, and lemon juice and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until fragrant, 3 minutes. Transfer spinach to a medium bowl.
- Spread 1 cup sauce in an 8-inch square baking dish. Top with 2 noodles. Layer with half the spinach, then 1 cup sauce and 1/4 cup Parmesan. Top with 2 more noodles, half the leeks, 1 cup sauce, and 1/4 cup Parmesan. Repeat layering with remaining ingredients, reserving the last 1/4 cup Parmesan. Cover lasagna loosely with foil and bake on top rack until sauce is bubbling, 35 to 40 minutes. (Place a rimmed baking sheet on middle rack to catch any drippings.) Remove lasagna from oven and heat broiler. Sprinkle with reserved Parmesan and broil until cheese is browned and bubbling, 3 to 5 minutes. Let cool 20 minutes before slicing.
