Meatless Spinach Lasagna image

This rich and cheesy crowd-pleaser is golden-topped and makes any gathering special. "It's comforting and hearty and so make-ahead convenient. I've even made it a week before, frozen it, then reheated the day guests arrive. It's yummy with a loaf of crusty bread and salad." Barbara Carlucci - Orange Park, Florida
