Simple lasagna
Description
The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. This lasagna is very aromatic. I prefer not to overload it with spices, but if desired, you can add a little red chili pepper to the mushroom sauce. I use 6 strips per layer, but this depends entirely on the baking dish you're using for the lasagna. The finished dish can be served at the table.

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees and continue assembling the lasagna: half of the ricotta, some spinach, and part of the mozzarella, followed by the mushroom sauce. Repeat these layers— I ended up with 3 layers.
