Ingredients

  • 1 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper
  • Nutmeg
  • 1 1/2 cups ricotta
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 10-oz. package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
  • 1 14-oz. jar tomato sauce
  • 4 ounces no-boil lasagna noodles (about half a box)

Method

  • Mix mozzarella, Parmesan, garlic powder, 1/4 tsp. pepper and a pinch of nutmeg. In a separate bowl, whisk ricotta with egg and spinach until blended and smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Spread 1/3 of sauce over bottom of a large, heavy skillet. Arrange 2 pasta sheets on top. Spread half of spinach mixture over pasta, then scatter 1/3 of mozzarella mixture on top. Top with 2 more pasta sheets, then spread with 1/3 of sauce. Sprinkle with 1/3 of mozzarella mixture. Place another 2 sheets on top and pour over remaining sauce. Break remaining sheets of pasta into large pieces and use them to fill in around edges of skillet.
  • Dollop remaining spinach mixture over top, and sprinkle on remaining mozzarella mixture. Transfer skillet to stovetop and cook, covered, over medium-low heat until top is firm, 20 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside, covered, for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
