Frozen spinach can be substituted for fresh, and fresh plain lasagna sheets can be substituted for fresh spinach lasagna sheets.

One of the best ! Its not easy to make though. It took me a few times to get the hang of it, so make it a dish for special occasions. Everyone just loved it.

Tasty and VERY filling! I also reduced the spinach to 3 lbs and the baking dish was still over flowing. I have no idea how 5 lbs would fit! I also used dry (no boil) pasta sheets and they worked fine. Here in Sacramento fresh pasta is hard to come by... as are chanterelles and oyster mushrooms. Shitake and portobellos worked just fine. I doubled the garlic and cooked really thoroughly before adding the mushrooms and they were delicious!
Not great. The result was bland and excessive in size. Multitasking is a must, since three "dishes" need to be made before assembly. My kitchen was a mess after I finished, and the result was blah.

Just wanted to add my 2 cents. I made some substitutions that I think others will find valuable: I wanted to make the final product a little healthier, so instead of using butter to saute the spinach, I used olive oil and the same with the mushrooms (although mine were dry/reconstituted so maybe it won't work with fresh). Instead of making one giant 9x13, I made two 8x8s. It worked out great for us: I simply halved the amounts stated step 4 when assembling. Really great, loved it.

I loved loved loved this recipe - I ended up cutting everything in half to make it more manageable for 2 people, but I would have used a bit more cheese than the half. Another suggestion would be to use more wine than milk for the final sauce, tasty.

This recipe was fabulous - I was concerned about all the spinach - the 5lbs seemed way too much - and as it turned out, it was and I ended up making a small side lasagna to freeze - you can go with 5 10 oz bags of fresh spinach.

This is a wonderful recipe but I looked everywhere for spinach lasagna sheets - - either dried or fresh and could not find it even in Whole Foods. Where would I be able to buy spinach lasagna? Thanks! EstesParkConnie

So glad you add add frozen spinach, although I prefer fresh. This is such a great idea for vegetarians.

OH PLEASE! DO NOT LEAVE OUT THE MUSHROOMS, THEY ADD MUCH TO THIS DISH. I ESPECIALLY LOVE THE CHANTERELLES

I made this without the mushrooms, using white wine instead of Madeira, reducing the nutmeg to a sprinkle, and using no boil noodles and it turned out great! The secret is the fresh spinach and the sauce.

Lessen the nutmeg to 1/4. 1/2 is too much and overpowers the other flavors.
