Notes
Make-Ahead Tip: You can assemble the lasagna the day before and refrigerate it.
Just bake a little longer if cold. Drain Your Spinach:
Squeeze out all moisture from spinach to avoid watery layers.
Rest Before Slicing: Always let your lasagna rest at least 10 minutes before cutting. It firms up beautifully.
