Spinach Lasagna

A few weeks ago I had abdominal surgery (everything is fine).  During my recovery, my work family supported me so much by bringing food, helping me watch Trevor, and continuously checking on me.  The next few recipes will feature some of the great food that they brought me.  Today's recipe comes from Shelly - Spinach Lasagna!

I remember the first time I ate this lasagna - I loved it!  Shelly's mom brought a pan of this lasagna to the office.   I have to admit that I am not a fan of spinach, but this lasagna is sooooo delicious.  It is super easy to make as well.



Here are the ingredients:



2 10 ounce packages of frozen spinach, defrost and wring out water
1/4 cup milk
1 cup grated parmesan cheese
2 14 ounce ricotta cheese
1 teaspoon garlic salt
3 eggs
1 box lasagna noodles, cooked al dente


Mix all ingredients together and layer with the lasagna noodles.  Layer sauce between each layer and on top.


Sauce:

1 stick butter
3 cups heavy cream
2 cups parmesan cheese, grated
2 tablespoons garlic salt


Melt butter in sauce pan and add cream, parmesan and garlic salt.  Pour over noodles, in between each layer and on top.


Bake the lasagna at 350  degrees for 40 minutes.

Shelly claims to be Italian, but she eats at Olive Garden!  Any true Italian would not step in the front door (except for the salad and breadsticks)!  Italian or not, this recipe is a keeper, just like Shelly!  She is a blessing in my life - a caring, loving friend who is humble and serves others before herself.  I am blessed to have her in my life!
