This was a new recipe for me. And as I was at the store buying ingredients, I luckily ran into a neighbor in the lasagna noodle section. She told me about these awesome lasagna noodles that you don't have to boil. I'll be honest, I almost didn't believe her. But it's true!! And they're really good. What will they come up with next?
WHITE SAUCE MUSHROOM LASAGNA
9 Lasagna noodles
1/4 c. flour
3 c. milk
1 c. Parmesan cheese, grated, divided
1 c. cottage cheese
3/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
1/8 tsp. nutmeg
1 (10-oz.) pkg. frozen chopped spinach (thaw, drain, squeeze)
2 tsp. butter
1 1/2 c. leeks, thinly sliced
2 (8-oz) pkgs button mushrooms, thinly sliced
1/3 c. flat-leaf parsley, chopped
1/2 tsp. oregano flakes
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 c. mozzarella cheese shredded
Cook pasta according to package directions. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Combine flour and milk in a saucepan and whisk until blended. Bring to a boil and cook until thick, stirring constantly. Remove from heat, stir in 1/2 c. Parmesan, cottage cheese, salt, pepper, nutmeg, and spinach. Melt butter in a large skillet; add leeks and mushrooms and saute for 7 minutes or until tender. Stir in parsley, oregano, and garlic. Coat 9x13 pan with cooking spray. Spread 1 c. spinach mixture onto bottom of pan, top with 3 noodles, then 1&1/2 c. mushroom mixture. Repeat layers ending with noodles. Top with 1/2 c. spinach mixture. Cover and bake for 25 minutes. Uncover and sprinkle with remaining Parmesan and mozzarella. Bake an additional 15 minutes or until golden brown.
So happy to know about your blog. Although, I have already spent way too much time this afternoon looking at it. This recipe looks so yummy! I am going to have to try it.
