I crave lasagna a lot of the times during the day, but I either think of it at 4 o’clock in the afternoon and know I won’t get it ready in time or…
Hmmm…forgot where I was going with this. The phone rang and threw me off course.

I’ve fallen in love with this meal and granted it doesn’t taste just like the one my mom used to make, but it’s super good and is quick and easy to put together.
Now I don’t have to spend hours layering noodles, spreading sauce and ricotta in the pan. So exciting! Yay, me!

Lasagna is such a hearty meal that you’ll have plenty of good leftovers for the next day, and possibly the day after that. Just the pictures say what I’m writing! And don’t get me started on that amazing mozzarella topping. Everything just works for this dish, and I absolutely love how some of these recipes I make do that.

It makes cooking that much easier, and better! You have those days where it all comes together, or it’s the total opposite. There’s very little happy medium. That’s like life uh?!

If you’re looking for a few other meals or side dishes to go along with this Spinach Lasagna, I’ve got a few that will turn dinner into a real treat.

A salad that drowns all others?! That’s what skinnytaste does with her tomato salad.  It’s got a perfect balance.

Chicken nuggets are always a favorite, and these homemade chicken nuggets from chef in training are no different.

Doesn’t look delicious already!?

I’ve found that this spinach pepperoni bread to be a great meal whatever the occasion. Any sporting event, or any weekday meal. It’s that amazing! Don’t forget that Italian dressing too.

I can’t seem to get enough of these oven roasted potatoes. They go well with any entree and the salt and garlic that you add, makes it a 10 out of 10.

For those of you that are looking for a little outside the box dinner, this quinoa black bean and turkey stuffed peppers has that and more. Maybe not that out of the box but it’s a darn good recipe that’s for sure!

I rate everything I make on a scale of 1 – 4 and this Skillet Spinach Lasagna earned 4 rolling pins!
I absolutely loved that it was so doggone easy AND that I could eat lasagna for dinner in under an hour. SCORE!!
I’ll definitely be adding this to our regular menu.
I’m excited because our daughter who is away at college will be able to make it for her friends and will be able to use her skillet instead of purchasing a 9 X 13-inch pan.
