Creamy Mushroom and Spinach Lasagna is a rich, creamy, indulging recipe combined with the goodness of spinach and mushrooms! Make a big batch since its a freezer friendly and kid friendly recipe.

Hello everyone!! Back with a scrumptious Italian Pasta recipe -  Creamy Mushroom and Spinach Lasagna that will leave you wanting for more. Its rich, creamy, indulging and bonus freezer friendly. Another plus point, I have used store bought Pasta Sauce to cut down on the cooking time. Now you can whip up a comforting and delicious meal in no time. Its a big batch too so definitely suitable for large gatherings and parties/potlucks too.

I love making homemade pasta sauce from scratch and storing/freezing it for use as needed. But there are days when you freezer stock runs out and you are pressed for time to make from scratch. The best store bought alternative to homemade is a RAGU Pasta Sauce that is made using fresh ingredients just like you would at home.

While growing up, mom would whip up a creamy baked pasta dish that was filled with cheese and veggies. I've tweaked her recipe to layer the lasagna sheets instead and fill with lots of cheese, veggie combination of mushroom and spinach which never fails and the creamy and rich RAGU Classic Alfredo Sauce. Love making this recipe for my kiddo just the way my mom made it for us. And nothing beats the thought of making a comforting and delicious meal for my Family.

Now to the recipe...

Step by Step Method:

Prep Work:

Preheat oven to 350F. In a pot boil water and to it add the lasagna sheets. Cook as per package instruction around 8 minutes. Drain, wash with cold water to prevent them from cooking further and keep aside. In a saute pan add the butter and oil. Once butter has melted add the garlic and saute for a minute. Make sure not to burn the garlic or else it will turn bitter. Then add the onions and saute till translucent.

Next add the mushrooms and cook till they shrink and start oozing water. Now add salt, pepper and cook for another 1-2 minutes. Then add the spinach. once its softens add the oregano and basil leaves. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until the Spinach is almost cooked.

To Layer the Lasagna :

In a 9X13 baking dish, spread half of the Alfredo Sauce at the bottom. spread evenly and top it with lasagna noodles. Add as many noodles as required to cover the dish, I used 2 and half. Then top it with half of the ricotta cheese followed by half of the spinach mushroom filling, 1 cup mozzarella and ¼ cup Parmesan cheese and 1 tsp parsley.

Next layer will be noodles, remaining half ricotta cheese, mushroom spinach filling, 1 cup mozzarella, ¼ cup parmesan and 1 teaspoon parley. Last layer is noodles, half of the Alfredo Sauce, 1 and ½ cups mozzarella, ½ cup Parmesan and 1 teaspoon parsley. Bake at 350 for 30-40 minutes until the cheese has melted. Broil on high for 2 mins for browning the cheese.

That's it, our rich and Creamy Mushroom and Spinach Lasagna Recipe is ready. Serve hot with sprinkle of chilli flakes if required. Enjoy!!
