Spinach Alfredo Lasagna

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 20 min. Bake: 45 min. + standing YIELD: 10 servings.
This casserole relies on a jar of store-bought Alfredo sauce to make it different from traditional tomato-based lasagnas. I came up with this recipe after eating a similar dish at a favorite Italian restaurant. While I’m browning the sausage, I soak the noodles in hot water instead of boiling them. It saves time and the dish turns out great. —Beth Stephas, Eagle Grove, Iowa

Ingredients

  • 12 ounces uncooked lasagna noodles
  • 1 pound bulk pork sausage
  • 1 package (10 ounces) frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
  • 1 jar (15 ounces) Alfredo sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 carton (15 ounces) ricotta cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Directions

  • 1. Soak the noodles in hot water for 15 minutes.
  • 2. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook the sausage over medium heat until no longer pink. Drain noodles; set aside. Drain sausage; add the spinach, Alfredo sauce, salt and pepper.
  • 3. In a small bowl, combine the egg and cheddar, ricotta and Parmesan cheeses. In an ungreased 13x9-in. baking dish, layer a third of the sausage mixture, noodles and cheese mixture. Repeat layers twice. Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese.
  • 4. Cover and bake at 350° for 45 minutes. Let stand for 15 minutes before cutting.
