How to Make Asparagus Lasagna
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Cook lasagna noodles according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
- In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add asparagus and sauté for 5-7 minutes, until tender-crisp.
- Stir in garlic and cook for 1 minute more.
- In a bowl, whisk together ricotta cheese, eggs, Parmesan cheese, lemon zest, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
- Spread a thin layer of ricotta mixture in the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish.
- Layer with 1/3 of the lasagna noodles, followed by 1/2 of the asparagus mixture, and 1/3 of the mozzarella cheese.
- Repeat layers: ricotta mixture, noodles, remaining asparagus, and remaining mozzarella.
- Top with remaining lasagna noodles and a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese.
- Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 30 minutes.
- Remove foil and bake for another 15-20 minutes, or until cheese is melted and bubbly and lasagna is heated through.
- Let stand for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving.
