  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt

  3. Mix ricotta, egg, spinach, garlic, salt, and pepper until combined.

Notes

  • Drain spinach very well to avoid watery lasagna.
  • Letting the lasagna rest helps it hold its shape when sliced.
  • Oven-ready noodles can be used without boiling.
  • Add mushrooms or zucchini for extra vegetables.
  • Fresh basil enhances flavor before serving.
