I used two packages spinach, and substituted ricotta cheese for the cottage called for. It was delicious, this will be my go-to recipe for veggie lasagna.

Tasty lasanga, with some tweaking. I added Italian herbs and garlic to the tomato sauce and spinach mixture. I used egg substitute instead of the yolk, and low-fat cottage cheese. I also doubled the spinach, and added some chopped spinach-chicken sausages for meat. Thanks Robin, solid recipe!

Wonderful recipe. I also added some garlic and some mushrooms. It was the best I had ever had. Will definitley make it again!

Very good! Excellent leftovers! I used whole wheat noodles, but otherwise stuck to the recipe. I think next time I will use a more flavorful sauce, though. (I used plain tomato sauce)

Very Good and easy to make! Rave reviews each time I've made it. I substitute one and a half jars of garden combination spaghetti sauce for tomato sauce, and only use one package of spinach.
