Ingredients for homemade lasagna:

• Noodles – provides layers
• Ricotta – a nice smooth cheese for the mixture
• Cottage cheese – helps add liquid to mixture
• Cream cheese – provides creaminess
• Artichoke hearts – provides main vegetables
• Marinara sauce – a nice sauce for added flavor
• Mozzarella cheese – sliced

How to make spinach artichoke lasagna:

• Make cheesy artichoke mixture – this will allow all the cheeses to melt together before baking
• How to layer lasagna – I put marinara sauce down first, then noodles, spinach, cheese/artichoke mixture, and finally provolone and feta. Then I repeated this process beginning with the marinara sauce until all of the ingredients are used up.
• Bake spinach and artichoke lasagna according to noodle box directions!

Variations of this spinach and artichoke lasagna recipe:

• Add meat – this is a meatless lasagna recipe, but some people prefer meat in theirs! If you or someone you are cooking for desires meat, baked chicken breast, browned hamburger, or cooked sausage would be quite tasty!
• Add more veggies – mushrooms would be a great add if you are interested in adding more nutrition to your pasta. Other vegetables you can add are olives, banana peppers, kale, etc.
• Different sauce – marinara is what the recipe calls for, but you can also use alfredo sauce if you would like! Pesto can also be a great substitute.
• More spinach – in my opinion, you can never have too much spinach!
• Extra cheese – you can add more cheese if you would like! I don’t like to add too much cheese or it can get kind of expensive. If you wallet allows it, definitely do it!
• Omit feta and/or provolone – feta and provolone are not 100% necessary in this recipe! They can be substituted with any other white cheese you have on hand like pepper jack or white cheddar.
• Separate artichokes from cheese – you do not have to add artichokes to the cheese mixture if you do not want to. It would taste just as good sprinkling the artichokes on as it would adding them to the cheese mixture.
• Omit artichokes – you can omit the artichokes if you wish!

What to serve with:

• Garlic herb butter rolls – if you are feeling really adventurous, you can make these herb rolls from scratch! They look just like cinnamon rolls, but they are savory.
• Garlic bread – standard garlic bread would also taste amazing with this spinach and artichoke lasagna!

How to store meatless lasagna:

• Fridge – store in an air tight container in the refrigerator for up to one week
• Freezer – this can be a freezer meal! Make according to directions, and let cool after baking. Once cool, put a lid on it and freeze. To reheat, bake at 400 degrees for about an hour or until heated throughout. You can also put extra sauce on it after baking since sometimes the liquid from the sauce gets evaporated out.
