Sausage, Mushroom & Spinach Lasagna

From EatingWell: April/May 2005, The EatingWell Diabetes Cookbook (2005)

This cheesy lasagna is full of spicy Italian turkey sausage, whole-wheat noodles, mushrooms and spinach. A serving of this version has about one-third the fat and saturated fat, and only half the calories of the original. Use soy-based sausage for a hearty vegetarian variation.

READER'S COMMENT:

"This lasagna is really great. Nice to change it up from regular lasagna once in a while. Sidenote: I thought it would be good to use this dried mushroom blend (porcinis, portobellos, morels, etc.) and I followed all the directions -...

I've made this several times, making no changes. It is really great -- delicious and certainly worth the effort. If you do have any leftovers it freezes quite nicely.

Yummy!

Based on user comments, I added a 15 oz can of tomato sauce to the chopped tomatoes and it was a bit juicy when it came out of the oven, but I let it sit for a while and it was fine. I did the no-boil noodle method using Dreamfield's lasagna noodles. I substituted the turkey sausage for hot Italian chicken sausage and added garlic, a chopped yellow pepper and lots of Italian seasoning.

Cheesy, but not Saucy

This lasagna was cheesy like a good lasagna should be. But, my lasagna did not turn out saucy enough. Would add more sauce in there somewhere next time. I did also love the whole wheat lasagna noodles. They made it feel even heartier without making you feel weighed down. All in all, it is a very healthy-tasting and feeling lasagna, but not quite reminiscent enough of a classic lasagna.

Great recipe

This lasagna recipe is great! Wondeful flavors and very hearty. I made it with canned mushrooms and chose to stick with the original recipe and make it with sausage. It's a bit time consuming to boil the noodles and assemble, but once you take the first bite you will know it was worth it!! Thank you Eating Well!

Pros: Wonderful flavor, very hearty

Started out with this recipe and morphed into something else.

I started making the spinach and mushrooms a couple of days before Christmas. When I got to the store to buy lasagna sheets, they didn't have them. So, I morphed it into a different kind of "lasagna" - layered the spinach/mushroom mixture, cheeses and sauce, but used eggplant and sauteed tofu slices in place of the pasta sheets. I am still enjoying this vegetarian dish because I made extra and froze them into portions.

Pros: Healthy and tasty ingredients.
