STEPS

1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a deep 9x13-inch baking dish.

2

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook lasagna noodles for 8 minutes, then drain.

3

Cook sausage, onions, 1/3 cup parsley, and garlic in a skillet over medium heat until sausage is browned and crumbly. Stir in tomato paste, water, tomato sauce, Italian seasoning, oregano, and basil. Simmer for 5 minutes.

4

Mix ricotta, spinach, Parmesan, remaining parsley, eggs, garlic salt, and pepper in a large bowl.

5

Spread 2 cups of sauce in the bottom of the baking dish. Layer with four noodles, 1/2 the ricotta mixture, 1/3 of the remaining sauce, and 1 cup mozzarella. Repeat layers twice, finishing with noodles, sauce, and mozzarella.

6

Cover tightly with aluminum foil and bake for 45 minutes. Remove foil and bake for 10 minutes more until cheese is bubbly and browned.

7

Let the lasagna cool for 10 minutes before serving.
