Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups cooked shredded chicken
  • 2 cups fresh spinach chopped
  • 8 ounces mushrooms sliced
  • 1 small onion diced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 15 ounces ricotta cheese
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 jar 24 ounces marinara sauce
  • 9 lasagna noodles no-boil or regular
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Olive oil for sautéing

Method
 

  1. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add a drizzle of olive oil. Sauté the diced onion and minced garlic until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
  2. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  3. Stir in the chopped spinach and cook until wilted, about 2 minutes. Season with salt, pepper, oregano, and basil. Remove from heat.
  4. In a large bowl, combine the cooked, shredded chicken with half of the marinara sauce.
  5. In another bowl, mix the ricotta cheese with a pinch of salt and pepper.
  6. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Spread a thin layer of marinara sauce on the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  7. Place 3 lasagna noodles over the sauce. Spread half of the chicken mixture over the noodles, followed by half of the sautéed vegetable mixture, and half of the ricotta mixture. Sprinkle with 1 cup of mozzarella cheese.
  8. Repeat the layers: 3 noodles, remaining chicken mixture, remaining sautéed vegetables, remaining ricotta, and another cup of mozzarella.
  9. Top with the last 3 noodles, the remaining marinara sauce, and the remaining mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.
  10. Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
  11. Let it cool for 10 minutes before slicing.
