Guest guest Posted July 12, 2003 Report Share Posted July 12, 2003 I went to a friends house for dinner and we made spinach lasagna bachamel. I am sending you this recipe because it was good and also because it looks like it has a high fat content. Sorry I don't have any nutrition info. You can precook the noodles but we did NOT and it turned out just fine. Lucky NO CF. SPINACH LASAGNA BECHAMEL serves about 6-10 people. BECHAMEL SAUCE: 6 c. milk 1 c. butter 1 c. flour Salt and pepper 1/8 tsp. nutmeg (optional) Heat milk until very warm, but not boiling. In another pan melt butter but don't let it brown. Wisk in flour and cook 3 to 4 minutes, stirring constantly. Gradually add hot milk and whisk until thickened. 1/4 c. vegetable oil or butter 2 cloves garlic, minced or pressed 2 c. chopped onions 2 lb. spinach, rinsed, stemmed and chopped 3/4 c. chopped fresh parsley 2 eggs 1 lb. Ricotta cheese 2 c. grated Parmesan cheese 2 c. grated Mozzarella cheese 1 pkg. lasagna noodles Saute the onions and garlic in oil or butter. When onions are translucent, stir in spinach and 1/2 cup parsley. When the spinach is wilted, remove from heat and set aside. Mix together remaining parsley, Ricotta cheese, eggs and 3/4 cup Parmesan cheese. Oil large lasagna pan or casserole and layer in following order. First, 1 1/2 to 2 cups sauce, 1/3 noodles (raw), 1/2 spinach mix, and all of Mozzarella. Next, 1 1/2 to 2 cups sauce, 1/3 noodles, all of Ricotta, rest of spinach mix. Finally 1 1/2 to 2 cups sauce, remaining noodles, rest of sauce. Sprinkle 1 1/3 cups Parmesan cheese on top. Bake in oven covered at 350 Farenheit for 45 min. Then uncovered for 10 min. Then remove from oven and let stand for 15 min. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
