Description
A wonderful vegetarian recipe that makes 2 batches - one for the freezer and one for dinner. Buy your favorite bottles marinara sauce or make your own!

Directions
Cook lasagna noodles according to package instructions.

Preheat a large Dutch oven coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat. Add onions and saute 4 minutes or until tender. Add spinach and saute 1-2 minutes or until spinach wilts. Combine provolone, parsley, salt, pepper, eggs and ricotta cheese in a large bowl.
