Method

  1. Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Heat the oil in a large frying pan, add the garlic and cook for 1 min. Add the mushrooms and thyme, then cook for 3 mins until they start to soften. Throw in the spinach and stir until the heat of the pan wilts the leaves. Remove from the heat and stir in the soft cheese, 1 tbsp of the Parmesan and some seasoning.
  2. Put a quarter of the spinach mix on the bottom of a medium-sized baking dish, lay 2 pasta sheets on top, then repeat until you have used all the pasta. Finish with the final quarter of the spinach mix, sprinkle over the rest of the Parmesan, then bake for 35 mins until golden and the pasta is tender.

    This is a really tasty and straightforward lasagne - I'd definitely make it again but I found that the quantities do need adjusting. I made it as per instructions and used the right size dish but after two layers of the spinach and mushroom mixture there was none left so I had to make a second batch. I would suggest either stick to the instructions but use a smaller dish and half the lasagne sheets (probably would serve two) or make double the spinach/mushroom/soft cheese mix and follow everything else the same. I'd be interested to know how anyone else got on with it.! :-)

    Thanks, Soph, for your advice. I made this recipe last night but doubled the quantities as you recommended. It would not have been sufficient to feed four otherwise. Tasted lovely though - very creamy. As someone who watches carbohydrate intake, I cannot understand how this only has 25g of carbs, but enjoyed it nonetheless.

    Have made this 3 times now! Everyone loves it. My husband and I are dieting so have stuck to the recipe except for the addition of a few extra mushrooms and another handful of spinach. Served with plenty of salad I think it does make sufficient - no seconds though!

    On reading all the above comments, I must have done something very wrong, as mine turned out to be utterly revolting - it was like eating glue and got stuck on the roof of my mouth! Even my dogs turned up their noses at it.

    Really satisfying and delicious vegetarian recipe. Made double the filling (including double the soft cheese), otherwise wouldn't have served four. There weren't enough pasta layers so I finished with a layer of pasta and then, blended a can of chopped tomatoes, squirt of tomato puree, oregano and basil and poured that over the top layer of pasta - then sprinkled with parmesan. I felt it was a bit too cream cheesey and would probably just use one pack of cream cheese and make it go futher with some milk when doubling the filling, rather than doubling the cream cheese. I let it sit for 5 minutes before serving and my pieces lifted out perfectly and stayed that way on the plate. Everyone raved over it.

    I didn't enjoy this. The filling was too sour and I should have chopped the spinach up as the stringiness of it meant it got lodged in my throat. Obviously the fresh pasta is a necessity too as I used dry lasagne sheets and the whole thing ended up very gluey. I won't be making it again!

    My husband and I absolutely love this recipe. I've made this 3 times already and I don't normally repeat meals. I also double the mushrooms, garlic and spinach but leave the cheese as per the recipe and find it perfect. I've tried it with herbed cheese too and it's great. I served it to my Mum and Dad last night and they loved it so much I'm printing the recipe out for them to take home with them.

    Really lovely but agree that quantities need adjustment. Used 300g spinach, 5oog mushrooms and 4oog soft cheese. This then easily served four people. Delicious.

    hello made my own version of this i fried off a bit of red onion and garlic then added spinach and chestnut and forest mushrooms flour and milk some squeezy stock herbs and cheese so basically a Béchamel sauce then i did like a normal lasagne then topped with cheddar and a sea salted wholegrain snack crushed up to make a cheesy crunchy lid was really lovely. i like to take a basic recipe and put my own twist on it :-)

    I thought I would use Besciamelle sauce instead of cheese as it seems more appropriate then a sweet ish philadelphia. I will try ...

    Haven't tried this yet but I have a similar yummy recipe - it involves layering the lasagne sheets with wilted spinach, sauteed mushroom/onion/red pepper. and cubes of butternut squash roasted with some chilli flakes. Also, if you make the sauce with 1/2 white sauce and 1/2 garlic and herb soft cheese, it is very, very tasty. I use skimmed milk and light soft cheese so the fat content is negligible.

    Well, either I got it all wrong or it's just not to my taste but it wasn't great. Certainly edible, certainly easy, but not that amazing. I won't be trying again, it was disapointing.
