For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the meat sauce. Feel free to substitute ground turkey or chicken for the Italian sausage to make it healthier. If you don't have fresh spinach on hand, you can use frozen spinach. Be sure to thaw it and squeeze out any excess moisture before adding it to the ricotta mixture. To prevent the lasagna from sticking to the bottom of the dish, you can line the baking dish with parchment paper.
