1 medium onion, diced

2 cloves garlic, minced

3 tablespoons olive oil

1 jar + 1 cup ( 32 ounces/4 cups) favorite marinara or tomato sauce

Add oil to a medium sized sauté pan. Sauté the onion & garlic in a pan over medium heat for about 5 minutes, until softened & fragrant. Add this to the cheese mixture. Combine well.

Assemble the lasagna: Pour 1/2 of the jarred sauce into the pan. Layer on 5 noodles. Top with 1/2 of the cheese & spinach mixture. Repeat this: sauce, noodles, cheese. Top with another layer of 5 noodles. Top with the additional 1 cup of sauce & the mozzarella cheese.
