🙌🏾 Save this for a low-effort dinner night! As promised, this is my lazy girl veggie lasagna and it’s perfect for when you’re low on time but need to make a meal that will last you a few days (or for a small party!)

It’s creamy, thanks to the ricotta and Boursin, and uses no-boil noodles so you can skip all the extra steps and save some time! It’s truly nothing fancy! This is the kind of dinner I make when I want something cozy and satisfying but don’t have the energy to do the most!

Also, this is secretly a great “clean out the fridge” meal! Once you get the base down, you can riff depending on what you have!

Easy swaps + add-ins:
• Add sautéed mushrooms, zucchini, or bell peppers for extra veg
• Swap spinach for kale (just chop it fine and blanch it)
• Add a layer of pesto for extra flavor
• Sub out some ricotta with blended cottage cheese for more protein
• Make it spicy with extra chili flakes or Calabrian chili paste
• Skip the egg if you want, it’ll still set, just softer

Makes one 8x8 pan
1 Garlic and Chive
1.25 cup (10 oz) Ricotta
1 cup (5 oz) frozen chopped spinach
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
1/2 tsp oregano
salt, pepper, and red chili flakes to taste
1 egg (optional)
1 jar of Rao’s pasta sauce
No Boil Lasagna Noodles
1-2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

Preheat oven to 375F

In a bowl, add Boursin, ricotta, spinach, parmesan, oregano, salt, pepper, and red chili flakes. Mix well and taste. Adjust seasoning as needed. Add egg and mix well. Spoon into a piping bag if you like.

Cover the bottom of the 8x8 pan with pasta sauce, then top with no-boil lasagna noodles, and top with 1/2 of the ricotta mixture, spreading into an even layer. Repeat the pasta sauce, noodles, and ricotta layer one more time. Cover lasagna noodles with pasta sauce and sprinkle with mozzarella cheese. Cover with foil and bake for 25-30 minutes. Uncover and broil for 3-5 minutes or until cheese is bubbly. Let cool for 10 minutes before cutting into it!

🎂 Another year older today ❤️ The last of my 30s!

But more than anything, today reminds me that I’m a big sister first. Being the eldest daughter means carrying a lot, but I would truly carry anything for her. This role I have been born into has shaped me more than anything in my life . It made me fiercer so I can protect better , stronger so I can carry more, and louder so that I can advocate for the ones I love.

This year, I only have one wish:
for my little sister’s cancer to die a quick, unceremonious death!

Feel free to wish me happy birthday by cursing my sister cancer out in the comments - it would cheer us both up to read whatever string of insults you can come up with 💕💕

P.S I also have a link on my bio if you’d like to donate or share!
