Spread 1/2 cup of sauce on the bottom of an 8-by-8-inch baking dish. Top with a noodle. Spread the noodle with 1/2 cup of the ricotta. Build next layer in the following order: noodle, 1/2 cup of sauce, 1/2 of the spinach, 1/2 cup ricotta. Repeat: noodle, 1/2 cup sauce, remaining spinach, remaining ricotta, finishing with 1/2 cup of mozzarella. Finish with last noodle, 1/2 cup of sauce, 1/2 cup mozzarella, and then Parmesan. Bake for 35 minutes, or until noodles are completely soft (prick lasagna with a fork in the center to test for doneness). Notes: This luscious meatless lasagna requires less than 10 minutes of preparation time and bakes unattended for about 35 minutes. Different brands of precooked lasagna noodles vary within about 5 minutes in cooking time before they are soft, so be sure to test them by inserting a fork in the center before turning off the oven.

Source : "Taste of Home Magazine, February-March '98, p. 31" S(mastercook formatting by): "bobbi744@attbi.com" NOTES : "I first tried this savory meat loaf recipe more than 30 years ago after seeding it demonstrated on a local TV cooking program. Since then, I've served it time and again to family and guests. The flavorful stuffing sets it apart from the ordinary," reports Shirley. Bobbie's Note: This was delicious. It starts out quite moist but is firms up and although moist when served, cut quite nicely. I used ground round and it had no standing fat in the pan to drain. It makes 6 LARGE servings.
