Lasagna is by far one of my favorite meals. There are countless ways to make it them, but spinach Lasagna wins hands down. Today’s recipe is super simple and filling. Full disclosure: the day I made this recipe, I had my sister over to guide me.
Hearty Spinach Lasagna
I’m horrible when it comes to portion control and always end up making too much. I usually reserve this lasagna recipe for special occasions like birthdays or Christmas.
Ingredients
One teaspoon of garlic powder
One teaspoon of pepper flakes
1 teaspoon of paprika
1 1/2 teaspoon of Italian seasoning
One /1/2 teaspoon of Goya (optional, but if you don’t we can’t be friends…)
1 1/2 teaspoon of Montreal Steak Spice (food taste so much better with this yum!!)
Half of an onion (or a small one) diced
171 g of spinach (about 2 cups when cooked)
One can of tomato sauce
Ground beef or ground turkey
Lasagna Noodles (about 8 -10 noodles)
One egg
Two tablespoons of Olive oil
479g (medium size container) of Ricotta
2 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese
Directions (meat and cheese and noodles preparation)
- Preheat oven at 375 Degree.
- In a large pot, cook your lasagna noodles al dente and set aside.
- In a medium size skillet, cook the meat, all the spices, and the diced onion over medium heat. Mix well and stir until the meat is no longer pink.
- Add the spinach to your meat mixture. Stir until spinach is cooked through. Then pour in the tomato sauce. Keep stirring until everything is nicely mixed and lower the heat.
- In a bowl, add your Ricotta and mix in the egg. Mix well until eggs are completely incorporated with the cheese.
In a large oven safe dish, start layering your cooked ingredients.
- One layer of noodles, followed by one layer of your meat mixture followed by one thin layer of your Ricotta mixture then topped with the shredded mozzarella cheese.
- Repeat until you have used all the ingredients. Top it all off with more mozzarella!
- Bake until cheese is melted.
- Remove from oven, and you are ready to serve!

Wow this sounds so good! I’ll have to give this a try with gluten-free noodles because I can always use new dinner ideas. 😉
Love me some lasagna! Never tried it with spinach but sure looks yummy!
This hearty spinach lasagna recipe sound delicious. I love mixing our dinners up and this recipe is something I am going to have to make for sure. We have never had a spinach lasagna before and we all love spinach in my family. Thanks for sharing the recipe.
This looks so delicious. And it’s a good way to sneak in some extra veggies. If I take out the turkey, this would be perfect for Meatless Monday.
I LOVE lasagna… it’s really the best! I also like that you can add little extra things to change it up every now and then… I’ll have to try the spinach edition, thanks!
I am moving towards more meatless meals. This spinach lasagna looks amazing.

This looks so delicious and easy to make. I am always looking for healthy recipes to try. I will have to get the ingredients I need to make this on the weekend.
I make mine very similar. One time my kids said “What is this green stuff?” and I thought that was the end of it and they weren’t going to finish theirs.. They loved it.
Yum this sounds delicious. When I saw the title, I wasn’t expecting it to have meat. Homemade lasagna is my favorite too. I wish that I could get away with adding spinach.

We’ve played with a few fun lasagna variations like this and it’s always turned out really well. I’m guessing this one will as well.
Yum! We love lasagna over here and now you make me want to make one. I haven’t tried preparing lasagna with spinach though. Must try that!
Lasagna represents a delicious comfort food for many, containing hearty noodles, rich cheese, flavorful tomato sauce, as well as a range of vegetables or meats.
Gosh this looks delicious! I remember my mom spending hours to make lasagna. I’m sorry to say I’ve never made it homemade, but this recipe is one I’ll add to my must make list.
