Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

  3. Boil salted water and cook lasagna noodles until al dente, about 8-10 minutes.
  4. In a skillet, heat olive oil and sauté chopped onion for 3-4 minutes until translucent.
  5. Add minced garlic and stir for another minute until fragrant.
  6. Cook sliced mushrooms with thyme, salt, and pepper until tender, about 5-7 minutes.
  7. Fold in chopped spinach and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes.
  8. Spread a thin layer of marinara sauce on the bottom of the baking dish.
  9. Place three lasagna noodles on top.
  10. Spoon half of the ricotta cheese over the noodles and add half of the mushroom-spinach mixture.
  11. Layer a third of the mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses.
  12. Repeat layering with another three noodles, remaining ricotta, mushroom mixture, and another third of cheeses.

Ensure even distribution of fillings for consistent flavor. Cook noodles al dente to avoid sogginess. Refrigerating overnight enhances flavor development.
