- 1 tsp dried oregano

Directions
- Preheat oven to 400F (200C).
- In a large saucepan, heat olive oil on medium-high heat and add onions and minced garlic. Saute until the onions are translucent.
- Add the ground beef to the pan and cook until brown. Joke time: If you don’t hear a sizzle when the beef hits the pan, your pan must be singing the blues!
- Add the 2 cans of diced tomatoes and spices and bring to a simmer. Simmer for 10 minutes, stirring often.
- Prepare the lasagna sheets according to package instructions. Depending on the sheets you choose, the instructions may require you to pre-cook the noodles before layering the lasagna.
- Grease a 9x13 casserole dish lightly with olive oil or non-stick spray.
- Layer the lasagna as follows: Meat sauce, lasagna sheets, spinach, mozzarella cheese, parmesan cheese, meat sauce.
- Repeat layering until you reach the top of the dish.
- Finish off with a layer of meat sauce and top with the remaining mozzarella cheese and parmesan cheese.
- Cover the lasagna with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes.
- After 30 minutes, remove the aluminum foil and bake for another 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is golden brown.
- Remove from oven, store, and let cool for at least 10 minutes.
Recommended Sides
Serve your lasagna with a simple side salad and some fresh pepper for extra flavor. A side of garlic bread would also make a delicious accompaniment. Joke time: If someone asks what you’re having for dinner, say lasagna, it’s so cheesy, you won’t have to tell any cheesy jokes! Enjoy!
