Ingredients

• 9 pieces lasagna noodles
• 3 cups broccoli florets
• 4 cups baby spinach
• 2 cups ricotta cheese
• 3 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 piece large egg
• 4 cups marinara sauce
• 2 pieces garlic cloves, minced
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the lasagna noodles according to the package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Step 3

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 4

Add broccoli florets to the skillet and cook for 3–4 minutes until lightly softened. Add spinach and cook until wilted, about 2–3 minutes. Season with salt, black pepper, and Italian seasoning, then remove from heat.

Step 5

In a medium bowl, combine ricotta cheese, 1 cup of shredded mozzarella, grated Parmesan, and the egg. Mix until smooth and well combined.

Step 6

Spread 1 cup of marinara sauce evenly on the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish.

Step 7

Lay 3 lasagna noodles over the sauce. Spread one-third of the ricotta mixture over the noodles. Top with one-third of the spinach and broccoli mixture, followed by 1 cup of marinara sauce.

Step 8

Repeat the layering process twice more: noodles, ricotta mixture, vegetables, and marinara sauce.

Step 9

For the final layer, top with the remaining 3 noodles, spread marinara sauce, and sprinkle with the remaining 2 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese.

Step 10

Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 20 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.

Step 11

Let the lasagna cool for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm and enjoy!
