How to cook deliciously - Sweet Potato Sausage Lasagna

1. Stage

Preheat oven to 375° and grease a 9"-x-13" baking dish with cooking spray. In a large skillet over medium heat, heat oil. Add onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute more. Add sausage and cook, breaking up with a wooden spoon, until no longer pink, about 6 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. 

2. Stage

Pour in marinara and bring to a simmer. Cook until sauce thickens slightly, 5 minutes. Add spinach and cook until wilted, 2 minutes. Remove from heat. 

3. Stage

Spread a thin layer of marinara mixture evenly across bottom of baking dish. Layer a third of the sweet potatoes on top of sauce, slightly overlapping. Spread about a third of the ricotta mixture over sweet potatoes and top with a third of the remaining meat sauce. Repeat to make 2 more layers. Top with mozzarella and remaining ¼ cup Parmesan. 

4. Stage

Let lasagna rest 10 minutes. Garnish with parsley before serving.
