How To make Spinach Lasagna 2
12 Curly lasagna noodles made
-w/o eggs 2 tb Olive oil
1 1/4 lb Spinach; well washed, stems
-removed and leaves coarsely -chopped 1 md Onion; finely chopped
2 Broccoli stalks; cut into
-small florets, stalks -finely chopped 1 lb Mushrooms; thinly sliced
2 Garlic cloves; minced
5 1/2 c Tofu "cheese" sauce (see
-recipe) 2 c Tomato sauce
In a large pot of lightly salted boiling water, cook the lasagna noodles just until tender, about 6 minutes. Drain well. Toss with 1 tablespoon of the oil to keep the noodles from sticking. Meanwhile, put 1 inch of water into a large saucepan with a steamer basket, cover with the lid, and bring to a gentle boil. Put the spinach in the steamer basket, cover and steam until the spinach is wilted, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain the spinach and rinse under cold running water. Use your hands to squeeze the excess water from the spinach. In a large skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion, broccoli, mushrooms, and garlic and cook until the onions are softened, about 5 minutes. Add the spinach and cook, stirring, until all the moisture has evaporated from the spinach, about 2 minutes. Stir in the Tofu "cheese" sauce, and remove from the heat. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Lightly oil a 9- by 13-inch baking dish. Place 4 cooked lasagna noodles in the baking dish, overlapping them slightly. Spread with half the spinach filling. Top with 4 more noodles, and spread with the remaining filling. Top with 4 more noodles, and spread the remaining tomato sauce on top. Bake until bubbling, 25 to 30 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes before serving. From DEEANNE's recipe files

LASAGNA ROLL UPS WHITE SAUCE INGREDIENTS
For the roll-ups
1 box lasagne sheets - used Dececco
1 lb baby spinach
2 cloves garlic - minced
½ cup onion - minced
½ pound mozzarella - grated
1 lb ricotta - drained overnight
1 cup Parmigiano Reggiano cheese - grated
2 eggs
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
3 tablespoons olive oil
For the Bechamel sauce
8 tablespoons flour
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 cups whole milk
Pinch of nutmeg - taste test and add slowly
2 teaspoons kosher salt - divided
½ teaspoon black pepper
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Cook lasagne sheets to very al dente (about 2-3 minutes less than package instructions) and run under cold water or shock in an ice bath. Lay the sheets flat on parchment paper or clean kitchen towels.
2. Saute the onion in 3 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-low heat in a large pan. Once the onion turns soft (about 3-4 minutes) add in the garlic and cook for 2 minutes more until fragrant.
3. Run the spinach under cold water to clean and place in the pan to steam. Cover and let cook until wilted (2-3 minutes). Strain the spinach in a wire mesh strainer. When cool enough to touch press the spinach into the strainer to remove as much water as possible.
4. Add the spinach into a large bowl with the ricotta cheese. Mix in ⅔’s of the grated mozzarella and season with 1 teaspoon of kosher salt. Taste test and if required add a bit more salt. When satisfied with the taste add 2 beaten eggs and mix into the ricotta and spinach mixture. Set aside.
5. To make the bechamel sauce heat the butter in a saucepan over medium low heat. Once melted add in the flour a bit at a time and whisk for 90 seconds to incorporate all the flour into the butter.
6. Slowly add the milk into the pan and continue whisking to remove any lumps. The bechamel sauce will take about 7-10 minutes to thicken. When the sauce coats the back of a spoon turn off the heat and add in the nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Taste test the sauce and add more seasoning if desired.
7. Place a thin layer of the bechamel sauce into the bottom of a 10 by 15 or larger baking pan.
8. Spoon roughly 3-4 tablespoons of the spinach into the middle of each lasagne sheet. Roll the lasagne and place them seam side down into the baking pan. Continue process working until all of the spinach has been used up. *there might be leftover lasagne sheets*
9. Pour the remaining bechamel sauce onto the top of the roll-ups leaving the ends exposed to crisp up a bit. Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella cheese on top.
10. Cover with foil (make sure the foil doesn't touch the sauce and cheese) and cook the roll-ups at 400f for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and broil for the last 2 minutes of cooking to get some color on top. WATCH CAREFULLY TO NOT BURN. Serve with more parmesan cheese and a sprinkle of fresh minced parsley for garnish. Enjoy!
NOTES
- If the bechamel is too thin add whisk in a bit more flour and continue to cook until thickened. If too thick whisk in a bit more milk and cook for a few minutes more.
- When broiling at the end, make sure to watch carefully the whole time.
