Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a saucepan over medium heat, melt 4 tablespoons of butter. Stir in ¼ cup of flour and cook for about 2–3 minutes. Gradually add 2 cups of milk, whisking until the mixture thickens. Season with salt, pepper, and a pinch of nutmeg for flavor. Set aside.
  3. In a large skillet, heat a splash of olive oil over medium heat. Add 2 cloves of minced garlic and 8 ounces of sliced mushrooms, sauté until the mushrooms are golden brown. Stir in 6 cups of fresh spinach, cooking until wilted.
  4. In your prepared baking dish, layer the ingredients. Start with béchamel sauce, followed by cooked lasagna noodles. Spread half of the spinach and mushroom mixture. Add cheese, followed by another layer of béchamel. Repeat until all ingredients are used, finishing with cheese on top.
  5. Place your lasagna in the oven and bake for 30–40 minutes until the top is golden brown and bubbly.
  6. Remove from the oven and let it sit for about 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm.
