This fresh white lasagna celebrates whatever greens are in season. When you blanch or pre-cook your greens, keep in mind that what starts off as a sink full will cook down to a much smaller amount. This versatile lasagna welcomes any kind of cheese, spices and certainly chicken or sausage for the carnivores in the family.
Ingredients
- 9 no boil lasagna noodles
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1/4 cup flour
- 1 teaspoon garlic salt
- 2 1/2 cups milk (we used 2%)
- 1-3 bunches fresh spinach, baby turnip greens, arugula or any combination, blanched
- 2 cups whole milk ricotta cheese or cottage cheese
- 1 cup (4 ounces) shredded Gruyere or Swiss cheese
- 1/2 cup (2 ounces) shredded cheddar or provolone
- 1/2 cup (2 ounces) grated Parmesan cheese
Preparation
- Preheat oven to 350F.
- In medium saucepan, melt butter. Stir in flour and salt until well blended. Gradually add milk. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens and boils. Stir spinach into remaining sauce.
- Combine ricotta cheese, Gruyére, Cheddar and 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese. Spread 1/2 cup spinach sauce in bottom of a 12 x 9-inch (3-quart) baking dish. Top with 3 uncooked lasagna noodles, half of the cheese mixture and a third of the remaining spinach sauce. Repeat layers. Top with remaining 3 noodles and remaining sauce. Sprinkle with reserved Parmesan cheese. Bake 30 to 40 minutes. Let stand 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
