Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

4 quarts water

8 ounces lasagna noodles

1 1/4 cups nonfat ricotta cheese

4 egg white -- slightly beaten

1 cup chopped fresh shiitake muushrooms

1/2 cup chopped onion

1 10 oz package frozen spinach -- thawed and drained

olive oil spray

2 cups low-sodium tomato sauce

1/4 cup grated nonfat Parmesan

 

Preheat oven to 350F.

Bring water to a rapid boil in a large, covered pot. Add pasta by holding it in

a bundle at one end and slowly bending it inside the pot as it softens. Keep

water boiling; stir pasta with a long-handled wooden fork to prevent it from

sticking together. Follow cooking time recommendation on package. Check for

doneness by biting into a piece of pasta rinsed in cold water. Since pasta will

cook further in the oven, it should be slightly underdone. Drain cooked pasta

into a colander in the sink and rinse with cold water.

Combine ricotta with half the egg whites and all the mushrooms and onion.

In a separate bowl, combine remaining egg whites and spinach.

Lightly spray a baking dish with olive spray. Spread half the tomato sauce over

the bottom of the dish. Layer with a third of the noodles, the mushroom

mixture, another thrird of the noodles, the spinach mixture, and the remaining

noodles. Top with the remaining tomato sauce.

Cover and bake for 50 minutes.

Sprinkle the Parmesan over the top and continue to bake until cheese is lightly

browned, about 5 minutes. Allow to stand for 10 minutes before cutting.
