Emma's Lasagna Florentine

My 10 year old and I tweaked a manicotti recipe to make our own healthy spinach lasagna. We substitute low salt spaghetti or tomato sauce to lower sodium content.Slap the layers together any way you want- just begin with sauce and noodles, and end with sauce and cheese.The spinach filling is also good for stuffed manicotti, homemade calzones or ravioli. (we make ravioli out of wonton wrappers or lasagna noodles.)
