Ingredients

• 8 Whole lasagna noodles
• 1 Tablespoon (tbsp) olive oil
• 10 Ounces (oz) package frozen spinach, drained
• 2 Tablespoons (tbsp) green onion, sliced
• 1 Pint part-skim ricotta cheese
• 0.25 Cups Parmesan cheese, grated
• 0.5 Teaspoons (tsp) salt
• 1 Large egg
• 21 Ounces (oz) Alfredo-style pasta sauce
• 1 Cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
• 2 Cloves garlic, minced
• 0.5 Teaspoons (tsp) black pepper, ground
• 0.25 Teaspoons (tsp) nutmeg, grated
• 2 Tablespoons (tbsp) fresh parsley, torn (for garnish)

Steps

1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
2. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the lasagna noodles and cook for 8 to 10 minutes until al dente. Rinse in cold water and drain well.
3. In a large saucepan over medium heat, add olive oil. Sauté the minced garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the spinach and green onions, cooking until tender. Remove from heat.
4. In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked spinach mixture with ricotta cheese, Parmesan cheese, salt, black pepper, nutmeg, and egg. Mix until well combined.
5. Lay the cooked lasagna noodles flat on a sheet of waxed paper. Evenly spread the ricotta mixture over each noodle. Roll up each noodle from the short end, jelly-roll style.
6. In an 8x12 inch baking dish, spread about 3/4 of the Alfredo sauce on the bottom. Arrange the rolled noodles, seam side down, in the dish. Top with mozzarella cheese and the remaining Alfredo sauce.
7. Cover the dish loosely with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes to allow the cheese to brown slightly.
8. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes. Garnish with freshly torn parsley before serving.
