Ingredients

16 oz. whole milk ricotta
1/4 c. chopped fresh basil
1 large egg
8 oz. shredded six-cheese Italian blend
2 oz. Parmesan
kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
3 tbsp. olive oil
12 oz. assorted mushrooms (such as shiitake, cremini, button)
1 medium sweet onion
1 small red bell pepper
5 oz. baby spinach or kale
2 clove garlic
1 can fire-roasted diced tomatoes
12 no-boil lasagna noodles
10 oz. refrigerated light Alfredo sauce

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Stir together ricotta, basil, egg, 1 cup cheese blend, and 1/4 cup Parmesan in a bowl. Season with 1/2 teaspoon each salt and black pepper.
Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and sauté, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned, 5 to 7 minutes; remove to a bowl. Add 1 tablespoon oil to skillet. Add onion and bell pepper and sauté, stirring occasionally, until tender, 4 to 6 minutes. Add spinach and garlic and sauté, stirring, until wilted, 2 to 4 minutes. Add onion mixture and tomatoes to the bowl with mushrooms and stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper.
Wipe out skillet and coat with remaining tablespoon oil. Arrange 4 noodles in bottom of skillet, breaking as needed to form a single layer. Top with a third each of vegetable mixture, ricotta mixture, and Alfredo sauce. Repeat two more times, layering noodles in opposite direction each time. Top with remaining cup cheese blend and 1/4 cup Parmesan.
Bake until golden brown, 30 minutes. Serve sprinkled with sliced basil.
