Spinach Artichoke Lasagna takes all the flavors you love from spinach artichoke dip and turns it into an amazingly delicious lasagna. The balance between layers of bechamel, noodles, and the spinach artichoke mixture is perfection!
This is an incredibly easy recipes to make! I’ve taken my recipe for spinach artichoke dip and combined it with my recipe for the most amazing lasagna. The result is a fantastic, indulgent lasagna that people will rave over! This lasagna recipe has three main components: the pasta, a spinach artichoke ricotta filling, and a simple bechamel sauce. You’ll also need some mozzarella and parmesan cheese for assembly.
Lasagna Pasta Shortcut
I’ve given you the best hack ever for your lasagna noodles and included it as part of the recipe. No boil lasagna noodles work, but they often end up a bit of an odd texture and absorb too much liquid in the recipe. Instead, I use regular lasagna noodles and STILL don’t boil them. All you have to do is place them into a container and pour hot water over them. Let them soak for 30 minutes and they’ll be tender enough to use in the recipe. Don’t worry, they will finish cooking in the oven. This allows you to get the rest of your ingredients ready to assemble your lasagna, without having to pay attention to it.
PRO TIP: Move them around after the first 5 minutes to help prevent the pasta sheets from sticking to each other. A simple swish and swirl in the pan should do it.
SPINACH NOTE: This recipe calls for frozen chopped spinach that has been thawed and drained. You can cook this in the microwave in a matter of minutes, but the spinach needs to be drained well. You don’t want a lot of extra water in this recipe so squeeze out as much of the water as you can.
ARTICHOKE NOTE: You can use either marinated artichoke hearts or artichoke harts that have been canned in water for this recipe.

Followed recipe but since several noted they did not have enough sauce. I was not generous at all with it when adding to each layer. End result is it was perfect. I wonder if those that did not have enough sauce thickened their sauce too much. Video helped me properly prepare it. Appreciate the video so much. All adults and grandchildren gobbled it up. Definitely let it cool before serving because it won’t burn your mouth and the flavor is enhanced. My personal preference is to add more garlic and some hot pepper.
This recipe is amazing and a big hit with my family. Even the ones that normally eat things like this. You defiantly need more bechamel. I used heavy cream ilo milk but ended up adding milk to what was left of my bechamel so I could finish my layers.
I will be making this again.
I made this recipe for Good Friday. I added a little nutmeg to the bechamel. It was delish! My only criticism is that in the recipe it says to use 1/2 of the mozzarella per layer, however there’s 4 layers. Also the bechamel amount doesn’t cover what the recipe calls for (1 cup then 3 layers at 1 1/2 cups then 1 cup on top = 5 1/2 cups). I’ll definitely adjust for next time, but this recipe is definitely a keeper!!
I agree I ended up adding milk to what I had left of the bechamel so I had enough to finish..
This is amazing! I cut the recipe in roughly 1/2 and used an 8×8 square pan. I used 5 oz fresh spinach, 6.5 oz jar of artichokes. I sauteed some garlic for the sauce because I just love garlic. Can’t wait to make it again.
So great tasting! As family is into heat added a bit of cayenne pepper and red pepper flakes to spinach and lemon zest, WOW!!!! Will make again and again and again!
Delicious. Loved it. Can this be frozen before baked?
Yes, you can freeze before baking, but be sure to fully thaw before baking.
Can I make this one day in advance and keep in fridge before baking?
Yes! It will take a little longer to bake when coming straight from the fridge though.
This is so delicious! My co-workers ask me to make this for every potluck.
We made this for a few friends. They loved it. My wife did not change the recipe but for the next time we decided to add a sprinkle of lemon juice to the spinach and something to make it a little more spicy. Great vegetarian dish. .
Genius on the lasagne noodles. Can’t wait to try this.
