Easy and Delicious Fresh Spinach Lasagna

This is the easiest lasagna recipe you will ever make- no cooking noodles, no draining frozen spinach, just layer and bake! You can add cooked ground turkey or beef to the sauce to make it a meat lasagna, but my kids love this vegetarian version. Perfect for a cold winter night!

Easy Spinach Lasagna

1 1/2 jars (24 ounce) spaghetti sauce (I like my lasagna a little saucy, so will sometimes use 2 full jars)

2 cups ricotta cheese
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
