Instructions

1.Preheat the oven to 375°F. Grease the bottom and sides of a 13 x 9 inch baking dish.
2.Cook lasagna noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
3.In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
4.Add sliced mushrooms and cook until they release their juices and are browned, about 10 minutes. Add spinach and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes.
5.In a separate saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Whisk in flour to create a roux. Gradually pour in milk while whisking constantly until smooth. Add salt, pepper, and nutmeg and cook until the sauce thickens, about 5-10 minutes.
6.To assemble the lasagna, spread a layer of the sauce on the bottom of the baking dish. Add a layer of cooked lasagna noodles, followed by a layer of mushroom and spinach mixture. Repeat layers until all ingredients are used. Top with grated parmesan cheese.
7.Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 25-30 minutes, until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
