Instructions

Prepare the Lasagna

Step 1

First, bring pot of water to a boil, add 2 tablespoons olive oil, and boil lasagna noodles for 7 minutes.

Step 2

Next, drain then add a drizzle of olive oil to prevent noodles from sticking.

Step 3

Then, in a pan add 3 tablespoons olive oil, sauté onions until translucent, add meat and 7 spices until cooked.

Step 4

After that, add peppers, mushrooms, the spaghetti sauce, oregano, Italian seasoning, salt, and garlic powder. Once the sauce boils turn heat off.

Prepare the Filling: Ricotta Cheese Mixture

Step 5

First, in a small bowl add ricotta cheese, the egg, chopped spinach and mix.

Step 6

Now, layer in a deep rectangular baking dish starting sauce on bottom and then repeat these layers of lasagna noodles (horizontally - 4 noodles per layer).

Step 7

Repeat the process! The top layer should be the hearty meat sauce then a thick layer of mozzarella!

Step 8

Then, bake at 350 covered with aluminum foil (spray with oil to prevent cheese from sticking) for 30 minutes, then uncovered for 15 minutes.

Step 9

Finally, broil for a few minutes until cheese is slightly golden. Allow to rest for 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
