  • ¼ cup All-Purpose Flour Essential for thickening.
  • 3 cups Whole Milk Almond or oat milk for dairy-free option.

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add olive oil. Sauté sliced mushrooms for 5-7 minutes until golden brown and tender. Add fresh spinach and stir for another 2-3 minutes until wilted. Remove from heat and set aside.
  2. In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Whisk in flour, stirring for 2-3 minutes until light golden. Gradually add whole milk, whisking until thickened (5-7 minutes). Season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg.
  3. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). In a 9x13 inch baking dish, spread a layer of béchamel, add noodles, half of the mushroom and spinach mixture, more béchamel, and mozzarella. Repeat layers, finishing with noodles, béchamel, mozzarella, and parmesan.
  4. Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove foil and bake for another 15-20 minutes until the top is golden and melted.
  5. Remove from the oven and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before serving.
