  Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and stir until just wilted, then pour in the marinara sauce and simmer for 2 minutes.

  While the beef simmers, place the cottage cheese in a blender or food processor and pulse until completely smooth and creamy.

  Cook the lasagna noodles in boiling water until al dente, then drain and cut or break them into smaller pieces to fit your baking dish.

  In a small oven-safe dish, layer a spoonful of the meat sauce, followed by a layer of noodles, and a layer of the blended cottage cheese.

  Repeat the layers until all ingredients are used, finishing with a sprinkle of parmesan cheese on top.
