Question:

My neighbour gave me a large bag of home-grown spinach?

Any ideas of a good way to cook this - I dont like it just as a vegetable (would prefer cabbage) but is there a recipe that uses spinach as a main ingredient?

Just cook you spinach and make this

Preheat oven to 375° F.
Combine 2 cups of mozzarella cheese, ricotta cheese, Parmesan cheese and garlic, chopped parsley and red and black pepper. Set aside.

In a 9x13 inch baking dish pour 3/4 cup marinara sauce. Place 3 pieces of noboil lasagna on the sauce, covering with another 1/2 cup of the sauce.

Layer with half of the spinach, then a layer spreading half of the cheese mixture over the spinach. Repeat layers. Finish with 3 more lasagna strips and cover with remaining sauce.
